The Gift of Love #inspirationalwednesday

Love is patient;
Love is kind;
Love is not envying or boastful or arrogant or rude.
It does not insist on its own way;
It is not irritable or resentful;
It does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth;
It bears all things
Believes all things
Endures all things. 
[ 1 Cor. 13:4-7]

That's what love is. Its not just this. Its this, and this, and this too. Actually, its a combo of all of these and more. 
Read through those verses again, but this time replace love (or the pronoun representing it) with your name.
Sound like you?
It sure doesn't sound like me. Especially not during this hectic time of year.

We're never going to be perfect, but with the potential to love like this why not try? In the end, its all that matters anyway.

"Love NEVER ends. But as for prophecies, they WILL come to an end; as for tongues, they WILL cease; as for knowledge, it WILL come to an end."
[1 Cor. 13:8]
