God Talk

God's native tongue is LOVE! - Anon
Though God scattered their language at Babel, He didn't scatter their heart's desire. Hmm!
Talk about a 'Ball of Confusion!' We get so up in arms on the tongue-speaking vs. non tongue-speaking issue, allowing this gift to separate us and define us as Christians/churches, when it was NEVER God's desire. He was and is always after uniting us as a body of ONE, and the only language that can do that is LOVE. No matter the culture, heritage, creed, or tongue - it is impossible to mistake the language of love. It is impossible to mistake the expression of care, concern, and compassion for another. It is impossible to mistake the willful giving of oneself in service to another out of love for Christ. YEP, God's nature is holiness, and His language is unconditional love.  So, what's on your tongue?
Until tomorrow....
Pastor Botts
"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love......I am nothing" - I Corinthians 13:1
