Without Love, I am Nothing

Meditations in Motion

And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.– 1 Corinthians 13:2

Nothing in this world has meaning if you don’t have love in your heart. Wealth, power, prophetic ability, knowledge, wisdom, and even faith are nothing, nothing without love. This red month, when matters of the heart capture our attention, is a good time to do a heart-check.

Is your love hidden away or can those closest to you feel its gentle heat? Let love shine out of your heart. With love we are everything.

    • Oh, yes! I remember one time there was a varied thrush spotted near my house. A bunch of birders congregated on the spot but I never saw it. Thank you, MaryBeth.

  2. It’s all too easy (and common) for me to forge ahead doing all the things, but forgetting to do them in love. I fold the clothes or drive the kids somewhere, inwardly grumbling. Lord, help me do even the most mundane things in love.

  3. There is a beautiful song where in it he stops singing and says these verses. It is wonderful. I totally helps that he has an amazing accent! lol. I love these verses. Love is so important! In a world that seems to love self above all others, it is time for more of us to step up and show love. I do not think that this means condoning sin, but still loving others is the very heart of the Father.

    Thank you for linking up @LiveLifeWell!

    Blessings,

    • Oh, that song does sound wonderful. I have never heard it. Loving others is one of the most important things we are called to do. I think it was the heart of Paul’s message. Thank you for the chance to link up!

  4. And on that theme:

    “The Love in your heart wasn’t put there to stay. Love is not Love ’till you give it away!”

    (It is best done when you have an Abundant Source!) 😉
