Love
As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them. (John F. Kennedy, 35th US president)
It’s appropriate to recall Kennedy’s challenge. Many of us say or think about something that we intend to do, but fail to follow through. Never is that more obvious than when we tell someone we love them, but don’t show that love in our actions. Love is an action word—and actions speak louder than words.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance (1 Corinthians 13:7).
