My Word Journey on CHARITY

1828 Dictionary: In a more particular sense, love, kindness, affection, tenderness, springing from natural relations; as the charities of father, son and brother.

Dictionary.com: Benevolent feeling, especially toward those in need or in disfavor.

          I think this definition is iffy. I think we should have that benevolent feeling towards all, not just those who are in need or disfavor... Or maybe everyone is in need or in disfavor of something... It's something to think about. :) 

LDS.org: Wherefore, my beloved brethren, if ye have not charity, ye are nothing, for charity never faileth. Wherefore, cleave unto charity, which is the greatest of all, for all things must fail

47 But charity is the pure love of Christ, and it endureth forever; and whoso is found possessed of it at the last day, it shall be well with him.

 48 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, pray unto the Father with all the energy of heart, that ye may be filled with this love, which he hath bestowed upon all who are true followers of his Son, Jesus Christ; that ye may become the sons of God; that when he shall appear we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is; that we may have this hope; that we may be purified even as he is pure. Amen.

                    -Moroni 10:46-48

Quotes: With Malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right, as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds.

-Abraham Lincoln

Charity begins at home, but should not end there.

-Thomas Fuller

My Definition: Charity is the center of all things good. I feel that without charity, it's hard to do anything Christ Centered. The Center of the TRUE RING Sis. Bates was talking about... Yeah. :) I love Charity.
