This week I'm focusing on the fact that love will always conquer hate.
It might take longer than we want or expect, but it will happen...
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails."
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
I really encourage you to listen to this video of Gungor's song "Beautiful Things".
I chose this particular compilation because it is simple and for me, made the words have a greater meaning.
{I want to point out that I did not make this video. It was one of many on YouTube.}

Want to join in this challenge?
Here's how to participate:
1. Select a scripture.
My hope is that each week you will search your Bible and select a verse that has meaning for you.
Here's a link to a good Bible verse search engine.
2. Add a photo to it.
I hope that you will chose a photo that goes with your chosen scripture, and not just throw these two elements together. The photo can be from your archives or a new shot. Please only use your own photos. You can have the scripture on your photo, below it, make a collage - however you want, as long as the two elements are together!
3. Put the Scripture & a Snapshot button in your post.
You won't be deleted or banned if you don't. It just helps spread the word...and the Word. ;)
It also helps visitors from the blog hop quickly identify your Scripture & a Snapshot post.
4. Come back here and link up your post.
Please link directly to your Scripture & A Snapshot post, not the home page of your blog.

I had never heard of Gungor, until today. Thank you for bringing them to my attention! And I agree with all comments here. A fitting image and verse especially in remembrance of 911.
ReplyDeleteThanks Katie for the poignant reminder! Have a beautifully blessed Sunday. xxx

ReplyDeleteUnique and piercing (no pun intended) shot, Katie! Reminds me of the corn of thorns they made Christ wear. Perfect scripture, too! Thanks for hosting!
