I Corinthians 13:9-13
Devotional:- “When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things” (v.11) NLT
I have observed that it is not everyone that can truly love. This is because it is a character for a person in a class. I have seen some men taking pride in beating their wives. I have heard many women proudly saying that they cannot stay under any man. And they do not feel ashamed that at their age, they couldn’t manage a home.
The truth is that, if you cannot rise and manage a home, it is a sign that you cannot manage a greater thing that God would have loved to give to you (1 Timothy 3:5). When people give excuses of the reason why they cannot love, you will easily recognise their immaturity.
Friend, you should feel ashamed if there is always noise of a fight coming from your apartment. And so many times, people, including the pagans, often come around to judge you and people, bashing and mocking your family (1 Corinthians 6:1-5). It is not a good thing to always report your spouse to people and expose your family secrets to the enemy unconsciously. True love is not a kids play but a character of the matured.
God expects that we should grow from being a baby, and now be mature. Be willing to tolerate and endure the people around you. Be mature enough to say I'm sorry, when you offend others. Let it be easy to say thank you in appreciation. Whatever will not let you be in good terms with people around you is not maturity. Therefore, wake up and be mature. And your life shall go forward.
Prayer: Lord, strengthen me to grow from now.
“UNTIL YOU GROW MATURELY, NOTHING MAY GROW AROUND YOU”
