Good Morning,
Happy Friday to all. I am celebrating this day with a cup of Door County Autumn Spice Coffee. Then it is off to work and hopefully arriving back home at a decent hour.
This week we are heading to Valentines Day on Sunday. Chocolates, flowers, perfume, lingerie, and expensive dinners will be purchased by many people spending oodles of money, celebrating or enhancing relationships.
Relationships are like bank accounts, unless you add to them regularly a bank account doesn't grow. If you constantly take money out and do not replace what you have taken, the account runs dry. In relationships we must always put in more than we take. We need to make regular deposits of kindness, affirming words, sacrifice, sweetness, time, and prayer. Basically we need to deposit love in our relationship accounts.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8New King James Version (NKJV)
4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
How is your love account?
Marty
