] Ait wants Nuu lO i've llht Nu!lSl i lived In looking into His life We
 lind that He kept the Sabbath day, going into the synagogue to worship lie performed the duty required Of Him as worshipper, because He loved. In going into life you can
 take as much. and need take no less, in
 truth, it is failure to take less. Pos sessed of every accomplishment with out love and though you give your
 body to be burned it profitcth you
 and the cause of Christ nothing.
 Now when Paul came to the andy
 sis of love he was able to give to
 Us just what We need and what we can appreciate. He passed this
 light through the spectrum of his in
 -piIed mind and the result was, like
 the component parts o' ligh. it
 elf. simple, helpful and beautiful.
 5 70 what common nlme. he uses r Hen he speaks of ;Aa resultant civ siOns, Henry Dru1nmond ,ays that the spectrum of love as seen by Paul has nine ingredients: Pa tience Love suilercth long Kind Aess And is kind Generosity
 Love envieth not. Humility-'Love vaunteth not itself. and is not puff ed up. esy-'poth not behave itself unseem,y n5elfishness- 'Seeketh not her own. Good tenn Percd-Is not easily provoked Guile Thmketh no evil SnceIi- ty-'Rejoiceth not in iniquity. but rejoiceth in the truth" This is the kind of rainbow to paint ca the departing storm. It's beauty cannot fade T one permits the light to shine on the storm clouds of life. Daily they appear; daily must the light shine and the rainbow be seen. A rainbow that is not seen had just as well not have been so lar as you are concerned. To those who see God He is love. Not silly. one-sided love, but love that pities. guides, protects, disciplines and pun i5heS for correction. Love that gives With no expectation of return Love that cannot be bought nor valued With a price, but love that comes from Him who possesses all things and therefore needs nothing from man except as gift to Him, to re ceiVe a gift in turn. Religion is not strange or added thing, but the inspiration of the secular life, the breathing of an eternal spirit through this temporal word.'
 The patience of love is manifest in that it waits, waits. Never in a hurry it $ not worried nor fret ted It just abides the time and does the next best thing. The kindness of love is it's activity. Al ways doing good, it is sustained on that which it feeds. A good part of the life of the Master was spent III trying to make people happy, and He so admirably succeeded because He was ever at the task. The world needs it sadly and nothing is easi- CT. Love never faileth," so the 9iVer need not weary in the offer ing of love to his fellows. When he offers love he is offering God, for God is love The man who loves not knows not God, for God is love.
 The generosity of love is it's pref erence for the honor of others. All selfish lives are narrow, bigoted, ugly. Magnanimlty comes only to those who see the best for others and in the quest of obtaining it for them their own character is nour- ished on the good things upon which character grows healthful and good. Then to be humble in the carrying out of it all is no small task, for those who bear love are tempted to give it, and tell about it, until it is spilled in the blasting wind, even as the delicate flower perishes be, fore the desert air. Let love hide
 tself and it is safe..
 The courtesy ot love is it's polite. ness. No thing too large to receive it's careful attention, or too small to pass with regard less than thing of the greatest importance. Love cannot behave itself unseem- ly. To do so would not be love. The tree is known by it's fruits. Love is known by it's acts, it's mo tiyes, it's results. If a man loves everything that he sees he is bound to make that thing look lovely in the sight of others. Gods treat ment of the sinner is just as lovely as His treatment of the saint. Hon. esty rewarded is no better than dishonesty punished. The same law keeps the locomotive on the track that lays it n heap of ruins beside the track. Both workings are beau,i- ful, for God cannot do thing other wise Both workings are God work. ing, for God is love.
 The unselfshness of love is it's seeking not her own" The un- usual life is the one that is not on
