LOVE LIKE YOU’VE NEVER BEEN HURT

JENTEZEN FRANKLIN

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. 2 And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails … 1 Corinthians 13:1-8 NKJV

1) Forgiveness is not about keeping score. It’s about losing count.

2) Sometimes the worst done to you can bring out the best in you.

3) It’s unforgivable not to forgive.

TALK IT OVER

Read 1 Corinthians 13:8. Share a time you felt like love failed you. How can you still see God’s love at work?

Remember the ketchup bottle? Is anything keeping love and forgiveness from pouring out of your life? How is God tapping on you?

Do you have a story like Pastor Jentezen’s with his daughter? What is God leading you to do?
