Most of us have heard that love makes the world go around. I don't know if I believe that, but it sure does make the trip worthwhile.
If you’re going to have any sense of joy, victory, and service that counts, you’ve got to have love. And love is a rare commodity today because we live in such a wicked world. Jesus said, "And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved" (Matthew 24:12-13).
The word "iniquity" here literally means "lawlessness." Lawlessness abounds. Have you found yourself hesitating to stop by the side of the road and help somebody with a flat tire? Have you found that you’re careful about inviting somebody into your house if they knock on your door and say, "My car battery is dead, do you have any jumper cables?" Or, "Could you give me directions to a certain place?" Don’t you wish that you didn't have to do that because there’s so much iniquity in the world?
