4. Charity suffereth long, and is kind, charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.
5. Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
6. Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth.
7. Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
13. And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.

Giving to charity is a great way to balance the commercial side of Christmas!
Hi Happyone, This is a wonderful post on "Charity" ... well done! And on Saturday's post I enjoyed and appreciated the Ten Commandments For The Christmas Season. I'm happy that I found your blog. Have a wonderful Sunday. John

A scripture to live by. And I wrote down the Psalm number from above the current post. Thank you for this.
