The Greatest of These

by @ 7:51 pm. Filed under Quotations. [add to del.icio.us]

When all the smoke and mirrors that make up our fallen world fade away, only what has been faithful and hope-based and loving will remain. But why is love the “greatest” in this trio of faith, hope, and love?

It’s because faith and hope are along-the-way words, not end-of-the-trip words. Faith and hope get you through the too-long car trip. They’re the looking-forward part that keeps us going until we finally get home. But when at last we pull into the driveway and reach our final destination, the sign above the door will carry a single word: love.
