Abide And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love 1 Cor. 13:13
Today we're travelling back to the UK after having a brief stay in wonderful, welcoming Gibraltar.
For a short time our abode was an apartment with all mod cons.
Now we're returning to somewhere more permanent, but we won't stay there forever!
So what will last forever?
One of the most beautiful chapters in the Bible is 1 Corinthians 13 and it ends by giving the 3 things that abide forever, in Jesus: Faith, hope and love.
This isn't the romantic kind but God's agape, unconditional love.
That's where we should be living foever. It sounds a bit nebulous doesn't it?
But in John 15, Jesus describes it as being connected to the Vine, drawing its Source from God's limitless love.
May we ever be found abiding in that love.
