Rooted in God's Heart

I Corinthians 13 in its proper context is not a sentimental piece of literature for weddings and ceremonies, but a direct and powerful word to the local church. Paul's message to the Corinthians, and to us, is clear: without love, every gift, every act of service, every sacrifice, and every expression of ministry amounts to nothing before God. True love - agape love - is not a human sentiment but a supernatural force rooted in the very heart of God, demonstrated perfectly in Jesus Christ, and made available to every believer whose heart is grounded in Him. This kind of love never collapses under pressure, never keeps records of wrongs, and never comes to an end.
