Black History Month salutes “Love in Action” with the late Congressman John Lewis and NPR’s Krista Tippett

February 14, 2023

First  Corinthians 13: 4-8 says “Love is patient and kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth. … Love never ends”.


Wikipedia says, “Love is considered to be a positive and negative: with its virtue representing human kindness, compassion, and affection, as “the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another”; and its vice representing human moral flaw, akin to vanity, selfishness, and egotism,


Author Glennon Doyle Melton expresses love as a message from God, and I quote: 


“When you were born, I put a piece of me in you. Like an indestructible, brilliant diamond. I placed a part of me inside of you. It is love. Love is perfect, and it is untouchable. No one can take it. It is the deepest, purest part of you, that part that will someday return to me. You are Love. You cannot be tarnished by anything you’ve done or that has been done to you. Everyone carries this piece of me, and I am a part of you, and you are a part of each other. The essence of each of you is LOVE.


Congressman John Lewis speaks of love in action. Take a listen and be blessed.
