Good morning. Love: does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but
rejoices with the truth. Even when it does not fit our narrative, we should
always abide in truth. Love - bears (covers) all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things. When we are walking in love, we should
want to believe the best in others, instead of the worst. We should not be
quick to shun them. It does not mean that we put on blinders when it comes to
the action of others. It means that we should not assume the worst in people,
but rather desire that there is really good in them and in their intentions.
Again we don’t turn a blind eye to peoples’ actions. We have seen too many
cases where a parent believes that their child can do no wrong, when we have
seen the wrong actions ourselves. That is not what we mean. We should believe
for the best in others. Enduring of things does not mean putting up with bad
behavior. No matter what happens to us or to the other person, we should
continue our love for them. Father help us to always have the right attitude
toward others, and to always walk in love.

Good morning. While Jesus was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. Jesus was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men. Now there was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. It doesn’t say, but I assume it is still during this time of the Passover. This man came to Jesus by night. Rabbi, we know that You have come from God as a teacher; for no one can do the signs that You do unless God is with him. It just said that the people believed in His name because of the signs He was doing; yet it does not say what those signs were. Unless one is born again he cannot see the kingdom of God. That is why unbelievers cannot tell what is of the kingdom of God and what is not – they’re not born again. Nicodemus doesn’t have a clue. How can a man be born when he is old? He cannot enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born, can he? Unless one is born of water and the Spirit ...
