And though I am able to impress others with my vast knowledge of the deep things of the Word of God, and thoilgh I am able to accomplish mighty things through faith so that I become famous anzong men as a re,nover of n1ountains, and J1ave not the LOVE that leads the deep long– ings of the hearts aroiLnd the family circle and re,noves the barriers that grow up in shy and tender hearts, I am nothing. And though in the glamoi,r of public praise I bestow all ,ny goods to f eed the poor, and tho iLgh I win the name and fame of a martyr by giving m y body to be bitrned, and yet close up like a clam at hom e, or behave like a snapping turtle, knowing nothing of the glory of giving m yself in unstinted, self-deny ing service to those nearest and deares t, it profiteth m e nothing. LOVE is never impatient, but k ind ; love k nows no jealousy ; love makes no parade: gives itself no aires. LOVE is never rude, seeks not her own, nor f ights for her own rights, is never resentful, never imagines that others are plotting evil against her. N ever broods over wrong; never exults tlze 1n istakes of others; but is truly gladdened by goodness . LOVE is the acid test of the truly )'ielded life, for in all other phases of Christian service there is a certain a1nount of glamour; but in the hom e one is confronted with the bare fac ts of life, stripped of all glamour. The home is given to help every Christian ''not to t/1 ink rnore highly of himself than he o itght to think ." And it is in the ho,ne that we have the privilege of demonstrating that the Christian life is " faith which worketh by love." ... AUTHOR UNKNOWN. • THE OHIO INDEPENDENT BA PTIST
