I had a penpal once. But I wasn't much of a penpal. I never took the time to share anything of myself, nor did I care a lot about my penpal. The relationship lacked knowledge and therefore, lacked love. Paul's prayer for the church in Philippi is that their love may abound in knowledge and depth of insight. Paul knew that love that is blind is no love at all. This Sunday we'll read Paul's prayer as God's prayer for us for 2009.

Love that's not blind
I had a penpal once. But I wasn't much of a penpal. I never took the time to share anything of myself, nor did I care a lot about my penpal. The relationship lacked knowledge and therefore, lacked love. Paul's prayer for the church in Philippi is that their love may abound in knowledge and depth of insight. Paul knew that love that is blind is no love at all. This Sunday we'll read Paul's prayer as God's prayer for us for 2009.
