It's all about LOVE. What's the greatest gift you can give someone...LOVE. What's the greatest gift you can receive...LOVE. What are the two greatest commandments...
Matthew 22:37-40 ASV — And he said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second like unto it is this, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments the whole law hangeth, and the prophets.
This was a plain wooden box that I painted and embellished with love. I used my cutting machine for the tab dividers. I also made the recipe book from scratch, which had been started quite some time ago, I used my Cinch tool to punch the holes for the book and to attach the wire binding. It's nice to finally have this project complete. It's going as a gift to a good home. It's my "thank you" for the hospitality kindly given to me this past winter.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ASV — Love suffereth long, and is kind; love envieth not; love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not its own, is not provoked, taketh not account of evil; rejoiceth not in unrighteousness, but rejoiceth with the truth; beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Jeremiah 9:24-25 ASV — but let him that glorieth glory in this, that he hath understanding, and knoweth me, that I am Jehovah who exerciseth lovingkindness, justice, and righteousness, in the earth: for in these things I delight, saith Jehovah. Behold, the days come, saith Jehovah, that I will punish all them that are circumcised in their uncircumcision:
Romans 14:13-15 ASV — Let us not therefore judge one another any more: but judge ye this rather, that no man put a stumblingblock in his brother’s way, or an occasion of falling. I know, and am persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean of itself: save that to him who accounteth anything to be unclean, to him it is unclean. For if because of meat thy brother is grieved, thou walkest no longer in love. Destroy not with thy meat him for whom Christ died.
Leviticus 19:18 ASV — Thou shalt not take vengeance, nor bear any grudge against the children of thy people; but thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself: I am Jehovah.
You can't love Jehovah without loving the Son, Jesus Christ.
John 3:16 ASV — For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish, but have eternal life.
You can't love the Son, without loving the One who sent him.
Luke 4:8 ASV — And Jesus answered and said unto him, It is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
To know the Father, Jehovah...is to know the Son, Jesus Christ.
They are LOVE.
1 John 5:20 ASV — And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.
Without love...You Have Nothing.
1 John 4:8 ASV — He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
"Fruitage of Spirit"
Galatians 5:22-23 ASV — But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, meekness, self-control; against such there is no law.
Matthew 5:44 ASV — but I say unto you, Love your enemies, and pray for them that persecute you;
We are ALL brothers and sisters, Jehovah God’s creation...be kind to one another and love with all your heart. I truly do love you and want All to be saved...but narrow is the gate.
Matthew 7:14 ASV — For narrow is the gate, and straitened the way, that leadeth unto life, and few are they that find it.
Jehovah loves all of His creation...do His will and live.
2 Timothy 3:16-17 ASV — Every scripture inspired of God is also profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for instruction which is in righteousness: that the man of God may be complete, furnished completely unto every good work.
Knowing the scriptures is the key to your heart. Click on every scripture when reading passages. Take the time to understand the meaning of it. Chew on it and savor it. Do it with the key ingredient...LOVE.
Matthew 6:21 ASV — for where thy treasure is, there will thy heart be also.
Love Always,
~ Peace, Love and Joy ~
