Devotion for the Third Day of Christmas

Christmas stained glass window1 Corinthians 13:13 (NASB)
13 But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.

 

On day three of Christmas, we are reminded of three great virtues: faith, hope, and love. Faith is “the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) Hope is the expectation of the return of Jesus Christ. Love is putting the other person ahead of ourselves—Corinthians 13 describes love better than anything ever written, and the love that God has for us is the perfect example of true love.

 
Thank You, Lord, for loving us more than we can imagine. Let us follow Your example in showing faith, hope, and love to the world. In the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.
