Page A—24 Shelton-Mason Journal — Thursday, Sept. 24, 2020 . N 9 KIDS MESSAGE by Theresa Murray theresa@masoncounty.com “Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins . out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hOpeful, and endures through every circumstance.” 1 Corinthians 13:4— 7 NLT I have always loved this chapter! It is the love chapter. Do you know who this reminds me of? If you said Jesus, you guessed right! And Jesus tells us, in John 14:9, “..Anyone_who has seen Me has seen the Father! " So God and Jesus are love! The Holy Spirit helps us to learn how to love the way they do, because it is not easy to do on our own sometimes! ‘ I like to hold these verses up as a mirror. Someone once said, when you read this 'chapter, try putting your own name, where it says love (it says charity in the King James Version). I did that and WOW! Try it yourself!! If I say “Theresa is patient and kind”— most of the time I am. If I say “Theresa is not boastful or proud or rude, I cringe— because, HONESTLY, sometimes I am. But, I can honestly say “Theresa is not jealous." Maybe envious sometimes, but not ' jealous. I want to see everyone at their best! I admit I am PRETTYgood about not demanding my own n «u.K I St. David of ‘ EPISCOPAL CHURCH SUNDAY SERVICES - .

I like to SAY I keep no record of being wronged but, when I forgive someone for wronging me, then they wrong me again, I am the first to say “I should have known! You did this before!” And, of course, if I think about it, I can remember other times I have been wronged. I TRY to forget them, and I’m pretty good about it most of the time. I am really good about the forgiving part, , and getting better at the forgetting part, but I have to look in that mirror EVERY DAY to remind myself! I do not rejoice about injustice, but I DO rejoice when truth wins out. If I say, “Theresa NEVER gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. ” I can smile because that is what others have seen in me, and they say that those are the greatest gifts I have been blessed with. Verse 8 says Love never fails. Prophecy, speaking in unknown languages (or tongues), and special knowledge will someday be useless, but love will last forever. I like to think when we don’t need those things anymore, when Jesus comes, He will take me with Him, and I will live forever. ' Verses 9 and 10 explain that what we see now is partial and incomplete—.— and even the gift of prophecy shows us only part of the whole picture— but, when the time of perfection comes, these partial things will be useless. So, for now,- verse 12 mentions the mirror—how we see things imperfectly, like puzzling reflections but, when Jesus comes we will see with perfect, crystal clear vision! We will know everything completely,‘just as God knows us completely“ Here is your challenge for the week! Read thisvwhole chapter, then look in the mirror! Not the REAL mirror, but your spiritual mirror. We might see different reflections, as different challenges arise. But we can practice by saying we are patient and kind, not jealous, or boastful or rude. We can say we don’t always HAVE to have things our way, and we don’t need to be irritable, or remember everything ever done wrong to us. We can say we rejoice when truth and justice win out. PRACTICE MAKES PERFECT so, when Jesus comes, we will be perfect, and not lacking. ' The last verse says three things will last forever—faith, hope, ' and love— and the greatest of these is love. Choose to love!!
