The Real Human

Thursday. 1 Cor. 13 .1-13.

Love is a fire. It burns out the impurities, puts warmth in the heart and a gentle glow in the Kfe, and tempers all to the best. God is love. Man is love, too, when tnie to the image in which he was made.

Jesus is love in human garb. To let Jesus in as a passion, the burning passion, is to have selfishness, with all its brood, burned out, and the true ideal made real. Then we live the life that blesses other lives.
