LOVE WINS! which means that God wins – and God is Love.
So since God wins, He protects…
Love protects – as Paul wrote in 1st Corinthians 13 – Love is patient – love is kind – and yes Love protects – which means when we love we protect and when we protect something it should be out of love – and when God loves us, God protects us.
When all else fade away what will be left? God – and when we stand or be shielded by God, we will last because of His Love.
The best protection is the Lord – so fear won’t work – anger won’t work – strife won’t work – hoarding won’t work – carelessness won’t work – fakeness won’t work.
The better protection is by the Lord – that is LOVE always.
Amen
1 Corinthians 13 NIV
If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
