Hello ,
Bill Donovan, an SIM missionary to the Kagoro Bible College in Nigeria told his students that he had discovered a special medicine that would drastically reduce
fights between husbands and wives. All of the students eagerly looked forward to the day when the missionary would bring the medicine to class so each of them could stop having fights with their wives.
After 14 weeks Bill Donovan came to class and said, "Today I will reveal the medicine that is a preventative measure against fighting between husbands and wives." Then he drew a
picture of a big bottle on the blackboard and wrote, "I Cor. 13:4-7 - the Love potion." The students then realized that God had already given them the medicine to alleviate human tendency to fight if they were only to appropriate it in their marriage communications. Bill Donovan's marriage and family classes soon became legendary for their practicality.
The
"Love Chapter" in Corinthians is worth another read whether or not you're married. Go check it out and re-visit what it means to have Godly love.
Have a great day and God bless!
