What is Love?

What is Love?

Where do we find our answers for life's questions?

Yes! God's Word!

Let's look at the "Love Chapter," 1 Cor. 13.

LOVE IS

Patient

Kind

Rejoices with the truth

Bears all things

Believes all things

Hopes all things

Endures all things

Love is NOT

is NOT Jealous

Does NOT brag

is NOT Arrogant

does NOT Act unbecomingly

does NOT Seek its own - selfish

is NOT Provoked

does NOT Take into account a wrong suffered

does NOT Rejoice in unrighteousness

Love NEVER fails

Do I love? I mean, do I truly, really, honestly LOVE?

Lord, help me to be PATIENT, help me to be KIND,

help me to REJOICE in TRUTH, help me to BEAR ALL THINGS,

help me to BELIEVE ALL THINGS, help me to HOPE in ALL THINGS,

and guide me in ENDURING ALL THINGS.

AND, God, help me to NOT be jealous, to NOT brag,

oh, LORD, to NOT be arrogant, act unbecomingly,

or Lord, please, oh, please, help me to NOT be SELFISH!

You know my heart! OH, how I wish you didn't!

Help me to NOT be provoked, to NOT hold a grudge,

and NEVER to rejoice in unrighteousness.

And thank You, thank You, thank You that LOVE NEVER FAILS!!! You are good! You are God! When we love this Valentine's Day, and every day, let us love with God's love, let us use His precepts to love one another.

Amazingly His,

Jody
