(1 Corinthians 13:13 NKJV)\u00a0 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.<\/span><\/p>\n

Love can’t be bought. If we think we can buy love, we are wrong and if we\u00a0try<\/i>\u00a0to buy it, that love won’t last.<\/p>\n

How can we show someone we truly love them? \u00a0We can tell them over and over again, and while we may truly love them, love has to be\u00a0shown<\/i>\u00a0as well. Words and money or gifts aren’t enough.<\/p>\n

Not too long ago we got rid of our dining room set. One day as I was out poking around in a thrift store, I found a beautiful dining set. It was old and beat up, but I loved it!<\/p>\n

It had lots of wear and tear. The fabric was stained and worn. The chairs were wobbly and scratched. But the design was what I had always wanted and I couldn’t find it anywhere else. So, that day I bought that set! I was nervous and thought “what am I getting into”?<\/p>\n

My husband dislikes old furniture. He dislikes painting, and he’s uncomfortable working with wood. I knew it was going to take a whole lot of work to refinish this set, but\u00a0I<\/i>\u00a0loved it!<\/p>\n

This set meant a lot to me, but there was a part of me that was afraid; afraid that I would not get to see this set finished, as I had envisioned it.<\/p>\n

A short time later, we had\u00a0a rainy day and we were stuck inside. My husband and I didn’t have any specific plans for the day, so went out into the garage where the set had been waiting to be repaired.<\/p>\n

As we thought about what to do with it, I thought he would say,” take it to the dump.” But instead he came up with a brilliant idea and got out his tools and started working on it!<\/p>\n

That day in the garage, we worked together. I did what I knew how to do and he did what he knew how to do and that set started to take on a whole new look.<\/p>\n

We finished that set after a whole week of sanding, painting, reupholstering, and tightening things up… it was beautiful!<\/p>\n

We did it together. We took something old, ugly and beat up and made it fresh, new and beautiful!<\/p>\n

It touched the innermost part of my heart because he took the time to help me, even though it wasn’t something he particularly liked doing.<\/p>\n

Touch someone’s heart today. “Put away your dime and give them your time”.<\/p>\n
