Let love be without hypocrisy. Abhor what is evil. Cling to what is good. — Romans 23:9 NKJV

Reflection on Verse for Today

True sincerity can only be found in divine love that emanates from our Savior’s heart. The most important fruit of the Spirit is love, which we are required to display in our lives. The Holy Spirit can only give us this fruit if we die to self, abide in Christ, and He in us. Human love is flawed, and it frequently shows selfish tendencies or hides behind pretenses of hypocrisy. However, holy love is sincere, unwavering, and infallible. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things; it is not envious, haughty, unfit, or easily offended.

Yes, love never fails and is kind, gracious, and patient. As Christians, our dearest desire should be to cling on to all that is good, while evil is to be avoided and all unlovely behaviors and ungodly attitudes are to be abhorred and loathed – with a pure, godly hatred.

According to the gifts and ministries that we have been given by the Spirit of God, Paul insists that the man or woman of God should show in their life a godly love that emanates from a deep regard for the Lord and a compassionate affection for those who are in the household of faith. Such a person ought to mirror Christ in their life, producing much fruit, and in their overflowing love for God, which is greater than all human understanding.

My Prayer

Heavenly Father, I give You thanks for Paul’s remarkable letter to the Romans, which lays out the cornerstones of our faith and the conduct that You expect of all Your blood-bought children in such a plain and understandable manner. I ask that God’s love fill me completely and flow through me to others as I live my life to Your honor and glory. As I abide in Christ and He in me, I pray that I may cling to what is good and despise all that is evil. I also beg that my love be without hypocrisy. Amen.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
