“And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. And let the peace of God rule in your hearts, to the which also ye are called in one body; and be ye thankful.” – Colossians 3:14-15

Valentine’s Day has become one of the most loved holidays! People enjoy the mystery and joy that surrounds love and romance. But when it comes to true love, we all have so much to learn from the God of love. As believers, we are striving to be more like Christ, and our love ought to be a reflection of His love for us. Enjoying the Journey is committed to helping others develop Christlikeness and equipping them along the way. Last year, we began using the Bible App platform and we are grateful for how God has used it. 

For this Valentine’s Day, we would like to invite you as a couple to study through 1 Corinthians 13 with us. We all have room for improvement in our relationships and this may be a help to you. One nice feature is that you can invite others to study this plan with you. Each day, you can write comments and share verses with your spouse as you go. We trust you will be encouraged and challenged! 

No one can love as Christ loves us. He loves us with perfect love. This Valentine’s Day, let us all take the time to thank Him for loving us and dying for us (Romans 5:8). Now, may that same spirit of love be evident in our daily lives. Perhaps you are single – God desires to teach us the importance of divine love in all of our relationships. We hope you will join us for this study. 

An additional resource to accompany you in our study of 1 Corinthians 13 is the powerful book “The Greatest Thing in the World” by Henry Drummond. We have made this classic available to you free of charge. Click here to download the full pdf version.

Now, I am no engineer! But the principle applies to us all: The easiest thing in the world is to have a complicated life. The hardest thing in the world is to have a simple life. You have to work hard to keep it simple.

You Have to Work Hard to Keep it Simple

The idea of building a monument was not that of Joshua, but of God. God instructed Joshua to have twelve men remove a stone from a prescribed place, place it on their shoulders and bear it up out of Jordan. It was to be taken to their place of lodging. What purpose could possibly be served in carrying twelve large river rocks approximately six or seven miles to Gilgal? God said to! In Joshua, we find that God is a monument builder. 

The Monument Builder

In the Second Boer War in South Africa, 13,000 British troops were trapped for 118 days in what is now known as the Siege of Ladysmith. Food diminished, and disease grew. Worst of all, discouragement set in. A civilian was arrested, tried, and sentenced to a year in jail for being a discourager! This man was not a traitor, but he walked around town and spoke discouraging things to men who were on guard against the enemy. The deepest wound you can inflict is to wound a person’s spirit (Proverbs 18:14). Image of the relief of the siege

The Power of Encouragement and the Peril of Discouragement 

In 2 Kings 5, we read a tale of three servants: Naaman, the Little Maid, and Gehazi. No matter your past, you can find healing like Naaman. Regardless of your circumstances, like the maid, God can bless and use you for eternity. Even if you have experienced great victory, you can fall into sin, just like Gehazi.
