Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
These beautiful words from 1 Corinthians 13 are often read at weddings, and for good reason. They provide an excellent guide for how we should strive to love not just our spouse, but all people.
Love is more than just a feeling. It is an action, a choice we make every day to treat others with kindness and respect, even when it's difficult. This type of love is patient and kind, never envious or boastful. It does not seek to dishonor others or seek its own interests. It does not hold grudges or keep a record of wrongs.
This kind of love rejoices in the truth, never in evil. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres. It never fails. This is the kind of love that God has for us, and the kind of love that we should strive to have for others.
Of course, it's not always easy to love in this way. We are all human, and we make mistakes. But when we choose to love others in this way, we become more like Christ, who is the ultimate example of love.
While it's not always easy to love in this way, we must remember that when we choose to love others with patience, kindness, trust, and hope, we reflect the character of Christ, who is the ultimate example of love. Let us make a conscious effort to love others in this way, knowing that love never fails and that it is the greatest of all virtues.
