A Congress On Hospitality

6 Since we have gifts that (A) differ according to the grace given to us, each of us is to exercise them accordingly: if (B) prophecy, according to the proportion of his faith; 7 if (C) service, in his serving; or he who (D) teaches, in his teaching; 8 or he who (E) exhorts, in his exhortation; he who gives, with [a](F) liberality; (G) he who leads, with diligence; he who shows mercy, with (H) cheerfulness.

9 Let (I) love be without hypocrisy; (J) abhor what is evil; cling to what is good.

10 Be (K) devoted to one another in brotherly love; give preference to one another (L) in honor; 11 not lagging behind in diligence, (M) fervent in spirit, (N) serving the LORD; 12 (O) rejoicing in hope, (P) persevering in tribulation, (Q) devoted to prayer, 13 (R) contributing to the needs of the saints, (S) practicing hospitality.

-Romans 12:6-13
