Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Romans 12:9 & 10
Verbs. Important little words in our lives. Remember madlibs? Where nouns add the subject and object, verbs are really where its at! They not only provide action but also emotion and life to our sentences. Try to read that verse with out the verbs:
____ must be sincere. ____ what is evil; ____ to what is good. Be ____ to one another in love. ____ one another above yourselves.
Verbs are even powerful when you read them by themselves! Much more than nouns ever can be.
Love
Quick, what do you see in your mind?
Hate
What about now?
Cling
What image does that conjure up?
Devoted
Anything there?
Honor
That one is really a double edged sword!
If you had to fill in the verbs in your day, what would you say? Do you like that verb or do you want to swap it out for another one?
