The Most Important Thing

If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

I think a fellowship is made or broken by love. If we fail to love everyone, we'll find that our fellowships end up being a mess. E.g. if there are people who we have trouble getting to konw cause they seem odd. But consider God made them that way, and we are called to love those people too.
just sometihng to consider

Speaking about love.. the song by Black Eyed Peas - Where is the love, comes to mind.

Sometimes I do wonder.. where is the love in this world, and what has the word love become. I find that people have different meanings for the word Love. iunno, lately i've had too much "love"/infatuation issues...
