The LOVE Chapter...Verse by Verse

He says,

"When I was a child,

I spoke, thought, and

reasoned as a child. 

But when I grew up,

I put away childish things."

1 Corinthians 13:11 (NLT)

I hear...

"When I was a child I said inappropriate things,

because I didn't know better,

my thoughts were incomplete,

lacking common sense that comes from years of experience, and my reasoning's were always selfish. 

I was the only one I thought or cared about. 

But, when I grew up and became a more mature Christian,

I put myself aside. 

I now strive to put others before myself,

think before I speak,

lest I tear someone down or lead them astray,

I ponder on God's word minute by minute,

allowing the Holy Spirit to complete my thoughts. 

 And I seek where and what Christ has for me to do,

 looking outside of myself to please my Savior."

1 Corinthian 13:11 (My Interpretation)
