2 weeks ago while visiting the Florida Keys, the teacher talking about Charity... She read the following scripture:

Quote:

"And charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. - Moroni 7:45"

Then she said, "You can change Charity to Love and it still works."

Quote:

"And Love suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. - Moroni 7:45"

Then she pointed out that you can replace it with Christ and it still works,

Quote:

"And Christ suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. - Moroni 7:45"

The she said, "Now put your own name in it and see what happens..."

Quote:

"And (Your Name Here) suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil, and rejoiceth not in iniquity but rejoiceth in the truth, beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things. - Moroni 7:45"

It really sounded good until she finished with, "See how it just doesn't work when you put your own name in it? That's because we aren't like Christ. We need him to make up the difference for us because he is all those things and no matter how hard we try it just isn't who we are. I am so grateful that he is all those things for me..."
Shocked
