Turn, please, in the scriptures to 1 Corinthians.

First Corinthians, the 13th chapter.

This is not a part of our series that we've been on, and I don't know that it's a new series. Maybe it's a one message thing.

You're not convinced, I can tell. I didn't say it was. I'm not guaranteeing anything, but this came up on my heart as I prayed about today.

And so let's see.

But would you believe God with men?

Because this is a matter of you and I both hearing from him.

Father, all of us here and everybody joining together with us online,

we ask you for the anointing that teaches, reveals, and guides and even shows us things to come.

We ask you for the word for now, the message in the ministry for now, and as only you can do it,

ministering to all of us individually in these thousands of different ways at once.

We ask for that.

We know it's your will.

We thank you for it.

We believe we receive it in Jesus' name.

Amen.

In 1st Corinthians is the 13th chapter. You know, it's not a, 13 is not a big chapter.

And we call it the love chapter, and it is, but that specifically describes only half the chapter.

And the rest of the chapter is about growing up, which you're talking on the same subject,

because growing up spiritually is growing up in love.

It is.

So begin reading with me, if you would, in verse 8.
