In my Eternal Families class this week, we read in 1 Corinthians about charity. As we were reading, I realized, once again, how perfectly Christ exemplifies the attributes of charity. You can basically just replace the word charity with Christ in any verse of 1 Cor 13 and it will still make sense. Christ "suffereth long." Christ "is not easily provoked." Christ "beareth all things." Christ "endureth all things." Christ "never faileth." To think of Christ as synonymous with charity has helped me to understand His character better than before. It was like reading a list of the attributes of Christ. Now I understand better what Christ wants me to become in the future. For now, I am going to chose one attribute of Christ/aspect of charity and attempt to better live it. In this way, hopefully I will become a better family member, better friend, better roommate, and a better disciple of Christ.
