The Gift of Love
1 Corinthians 13:6
Love is not happy with evil, but is happy with the truth.
Of course we abhor evil – the evil we see on TV and in the news of terrorism, abuse, neglect.
But do we turn a blind eye to the evil that is closer to home – the injustices of our society, the ease with which we can put our own needs first, the uses we make of our resources?
And what is the truth? So hard to define, so easy to claim.
Loving God, help us to see, hear and speak no evil but to seek out the opposite truths. Reveal ways in which we can stand up for truth as Jesus did, so that we can change our world, bit by bit, in our own corners.
Help me to see and know the difference between truth and evil as I live in our world today.
