LOVE || PART 9 What is our goal? 1. Grow Up When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 1 Corinthians 13:11 Love for our brother is the same, just like a marker for independence is being self supporting, a marker of a true Christian is the love we show for others. It is time for you to grow up and be defined by love! 2. See the Whole Picture For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. 1 Corinthians 13:12 The day is coming when we will see him face to face, but we need to see the whole picture before it is too late. If we saw the picture of the world we live in the way God sees it would change everything.  We cannot see the full picture of God’s plan because we are so focused on ourselves. What does this mean for us? Is it time to grow up? Do you need to change your perspective to God's perspective? Do you have the fruit of love in your life?
