A friend texted me tonight 1 Corinthians 13:4-7. Now yes we have all read this before...and this was a challenge to take the verses and examine them. I did. It was weird...I read the text message twice and both times I got that God is love. He is all of 1 Corinthians 13. Not just that if we want to love we need to be all of.
Easton's paraphrase.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
God is patient, and He is kind. He does not envy or boast. He is not proud. God does not dishonor others, he is not self-seeking or easily angered and he keeps no record of wrongs. God does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. He always protects, trusts, hopes and perseveres.
I feel this is a lot of things that are attributes of God that I need to take on. I love that God can call me to be these things in the same way that he already is and has mastered these.
For His Love Never Ends
