1 Corinthians 13
"Love is patient and kind; It is not jealous or conceited or proud; love is not ill-mannered or selfish or irritable;love does not keep a record of wrongs; love is not happy with evil,but is happy with the truth.Love never gives up;and its
faith,hope and patience never fail.
Love is eternal.There are inspired messages,but they are temporary;there are gifts of speaking in strange tongues.but they will cease;there is knowledge,but it will pass; but when what is perfect comes, than what is partial will disappear."
I never knew loving someone was so difficult..there more to it than it seems.I always believe that a healthy relationship is one filled with joy and laughter and that sorrow and pain should not exist at all. However, it is in difficulty that love grows and nurtures. That one truly understands the fruit of love: faith,hope and patience.Keep faith, that love will endure and that when put to the test the lord will be your shelter and your aid. Troubles and worries will sieze because of the Lord God's almighty hand.Have hope, that what you believe in will be.Do not let the words of others influence but instead during the chaos strengthen your believes. I the father will not let others lay hand on you.Be patient, love never comes easy.It is like a child, often beguiled. Yet, when your heart is strong nothing will destroy this gift.My child, the harvest is sweet but the labour is bitter.Meanwhile there three remain: faith,hope and love; and the greatest of these is
LOVE.
