When we love, we pursue truth. Are you a truth-seeker?
When we love, we seek to protect others. Are you an advocate and protector of the people around you?
When we love, we trust. Do you have faith in the people entrusted to you? And how do you show that faith?
When we love, we hope. Are you holding onto hope, even if you don’t feel hopeful? Are you actively putting your trust in God’s plan despite your feelings?
When we love, we persevere. We keep fighting for unity. We believe the best in people. We stick with the hard things, even when they become harder.We do the work, with God’s help.
When we love, we don’t give up – because God is on our side.
Love never fails.
“Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
1 Corinthians 13:6-7 NIV
It's a God thing... 
Thank you for these positive words of encouragement! Including a perfect scripture reference! Blessings to you!
My pleasure, Rick. God bless!
This is so encouraging. I’ve lost hope before. When all we can see is the mess around us it’s difficult, but God’s time isn’t necessarily our time
The mess and brokenness of this world can be overwhelming. But that’s true – we need to trust in God’s overarching plan, which includes redemption… Thanks for stopping by.
