Tuesday October 14 I Corinthians 13

“Love covers a multitude of sins.” This rich Scripture is quoted in both church and secular contexts, with most people having no idea of its origin. What a marvelous, liberating Gospel truth Peter has penned! The love of Jesus surely has covered a multitude (a multitudinous multitude) of sins. In the life of the church, forgiveness of one another is essential. We are taught to forgive as Christ forgave, and there is no healthy Christian life without the genuine practice of forgiveness, both receiving and giving.
