AFFECTION AND LOVE
The 96th Day of Love
Memory Verse— Psalm 119:127. Truly I love your commandments more than gold.
The Scripture Lesson— Proverbs 6:16-19
The Meditation
Suffering and love often travel together in the
same personality. Jesus suffered for and with the
people who crucified Him.
A past President of the United States was shot
While on a happy tour of a great city. His loving
wife was by his side. He died in less than an hour.
mournful millions wondered why this happened.
People came from across the world to Washington
on a mission of love, prayer and sympathy.
I have seen good people with broken bodies
yet they lived in triumphant love.
The relation of affliction and love is more than
an academic question; it is one of the solemn
relationships of life. Faith in a God of love is the
finest resource available for the facing of this fact.
Out of our affliction comes a witness of love,
and people see it more clearly because it is etched
against a dark background.
This love was in the life of our Lord.
