الإيمان والأمل والحب

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

-1 Corinthians 13:4-13 愛

I was dying a death that would bring me life…. I was frantic, overcome by violent anger with myself for not accepting your will and entering into your covenant…. I tore my hair and hammered my forehead with my fists; I locked my fingers and hugged my knee

Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good.
Romans 12:9

So also Abraham ‘believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.’ Understand, then, that those who have faith are children of Abraham. Scripture foresaw that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, and announced the gospel in advance to Abraham: ‘All nations will be blessed through you.’ So those who rely on faith are blessed along with Abraham, the man of faith. For all who rely on the works of the law are under a curse, as it is written: ‘Cursed is everyone who does not continue to do everything written in the Book of the Law.’ Clearly no one who relies on the law is justified before God, because ‘the righteous will live by faith.’ The law is not based on faith; on the contrary, it says, ‘The person who does these things will live by them.’ Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, for it is written: ‘Cursed is everyone who is hung on a pole.’ He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit.

The Thoughts I Think: Comfort Levels

thomaschristianson:

I’m reading a book right now called The Sacredness of Questioning Everything by David Dark. It’s an interesting book. There’s a quote in it that hit me:

“If the words of Jesus of Nazareth…strike us comfortable and perfectly in tune with our own confident common sense, and our likes and dislikes,…

In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant, being made in human likeness. And being found in appearance as a man, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to death—even death on a cross! Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth
Philippians 2:5-10
September 14th, 2011
Then you will call, and the LORD will answer; you will cry for help, and he will say: Here am I. ‘If you do away with the yoke of oppression, with the pointing finger and malicious talk, and if you spend yourselves in behalf of the hungry and satisfy the needs of the oppressed, then your light will rise in the darkness, and your night will become like the noonday. The LORD will guide you always; he will satisfy your needs in a sun-scorched land and will strengthen your frame. You will be like a well-watered garden, like a spring whose waters never fail. Your people will rebuild the ancient ruins and will raise up the age-old foundations; you will be called Repairer of Broken Walls, Restorer of Streets with Dwellings.

I look to you O perfect Prince of Peace! In you my heart finds NO trouble! The perplexity of this life HAS to leave in light of you! For in you there is NO perplexity— my only concern is to abide in you. I receive in you ALL your undisturbed stillness. The reflected peace that is proof that you are right here with me! I have all liberty to turn my mind to you. For it is YOU that enables me! For it is YOU that works all things for my good! For it is in YOU I find my rest!

I thought it could be ok to pretend that it’s not a big deal to me.

I believed it wouldn’t be.

It turns out that it really was a big deal.

I’ve done a disservice to us both.

The truth is that I wanted it so badly.

I took what was available to me.

Knowing it wouldn’t be enough.

I thought I could condition myself—convincing that what was available to me would be enough.

Though, somewhere inside I knew it wouldn’t be.

So, I negotiated what should have never been compromised.

Now, I’m left disassociated— it’s what I tend to do best.

I want to purge you from my life.
You cause me way too much grief.
