“Understand this, my dear brothers and sisters: You must all be quick to listen, slow to speak, and slow to get angry.” – James 1:19 (NIV)
It has been said that to love well is to listen well. Listening well can be depicted through the traditional Chinese character for “listen, hear, obey” as described below.

Pre-requisite: BS510 Bible Study Methods and Hermeneutics.

2 Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds, 3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. 4 Let perseverance finish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.”
~ James 1:2–4 (NIV)
“By perseverance the snail reached the ark.” – Charles Spurgeon
“Success is not final, failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts.” – Winston Churchill
“I was taught the way of progress is neither swift nor easy.” – Marie Curie (1867-1934)
Inspired by Studio Seck.
God is Love
“Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.” ~ 1 John 4:8 (NIV)
“Nothing God ever does, or ever did, or ever will do, is separate from the love of God,” noted A.W. Tozer. Do we choose to accept God’s love and then to love others as we have received His love? Read about the implications of “God is love” to you and me here.
