I Corinthians 13:1-8

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control…”  Galatians 5:22-23a (CSB)

When Mercy is at work…

1.   My __________________________ will be love.

“If I speak human or angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give away all my possessions, and if I give over my body in order to boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.”  I Corinthians 13:1-3 (CSB)

2.   My life will be _____________________ by love.

“Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not arrogant, is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not irritable, and does not keep a record of wrongs. Love finds no joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in the truth.”  I Corinthians 13:4-6 (CSB)

3.   Love will ___________________________ as a follower of Jesus.

“It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends…” I Corinthians 13:7-8a (CSB)

“I give you a new command: Love one another. Just as I have loved you, you are also to love one another.  By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:34-35 (CSB)
