Love Builds Up - v3

The cycle of growth is first love, maturing, then hunger and desperation - which loops us right back into our First Love. When it comes to growing in wisdom and knowledge you start with blindness and end in blindness. Jesus said that if we admit we are blind, then He can give us sight. This isn't just part of salvation. Even Jesus did not rely on what His eyes saw and what his ears heard. His time in prayer is how he rejected natural reasoning - driven by tradition and fear - and embraced pure knowledge in humility. We should follow his example.
This Christian song ends with the admonition: Knowledge puffs up - Love builds up!
