Daily Bible Reading Guide, June 2023 - "God’s Saving Word: Spiritual Renewal"Smakprov

June 3 Introduction In today’s reading, the apostle Paul describes how love is to be shown toward others. While there are things we may not fully understand, when we act in love we grow in our knowledge of God. Scripture Reading 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 Today’s Key Verse:1 Corinthians 13:7 Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail. Reflect The word “love” in today’s reading is the Greek word “agape” which refers to God’s love (see John 3:16; Romans 5:5-8) and the kind of self-giving love God’s followers are to show toward others. How many times does the word “love” appear in 1 Corinthians 13? What does today’s reading teach you about love? Pray Holy God, your love never fails. Teach me to love with patience and kindness and to love without jealousy or conceit. Thank you for your steadfast and eternal love. Amen. Tomorrow’s Reading 1 Corinthians 14:1-25: The apostle Paul writes about speaking in strange tongues.
