Part six of light from many lamps compiles the stories to tell about personality and relationship. St. Paul’s first letter is not new to me that I had read many times. One of the famous quotes by St. Paul is, “Faith, hope and love – these three. And the greatest of these is love”. The summary of St. Paul’s story in part six of the book light from many lamps is love and his love to his fellow followers. He has showed a solid and true love to the people once he started his missionary activities. He had to travel around the world to share Christianity and the situations were not alluring but the love towards his fellow humans lead him through difficult situations. His letters continuously reminded his followers. Love towards his activities and to the people, conveyed the utmost message through his letters. The most famous is his first letter to the Corinthians, which is known and loved by millions of people-and which is considered one of the most glorious passages in world literature (page 189). His quotes are favorite to famous people like Jefferson, Lincoln, Franklin D. Roosevelt and to millions of people. Those who love not their fellow beings live unfruitful lives (Percy Bysshe Shelley, page 190).

As a healthcare professional I could learn the importance of love towards others and to the job. How to save the relationships alive is well understood . In the field of healthcare, primary need is to be lovable to patients and to spread happiness. Keeping relationships alive is very important in life. Creating or generating relationship is easy job than maintaining it. It’s needful to do the necessary to keep the relationship as St. Paul sent letters to his followers to remind them his thoughts. One of the most important phases of maturing is that of growth from self – centering to an understanding relationship to others. A person is not mature until he has both an ability and a willingness to see himself as one among others and to do unto those others as he would have them do to him (H. A. Overstreet, page 190). I understand it’s not always easy to be lovable and compassionate as we are all humans and we tend to be different at times. I am eager to know if there is anyone who is always the same with so much of love like it’s told in St. Paul’s letters. Is there anyone ??
