I keep going back again to this because all that we often seek in the name of "L-O-V-E" is found in Him. Looking at the scripture of ALL love scriptures 1 Corinthians 13:6-13, I gather the following:
The number of times God has been longsuffering with me while I got my act together. Running away from Him, seeking in all the wrong places = He is Patient and perseveres with me... Or better yet His Grace and Mercy that are renewed everyday, all of which look past my daily offenses = He is forgiving and kind. He is able to make relationships NEW daily!!! He will not move in my life unless I permit Him = He respects my free will and He is not rude. He loves me from afar and will not impose even when I'm like a stubborn child = He respects my freedom and is not self-seeking. Everyday I wake up anew, no sins, just a God who delights and loves me = No records of wrongs. He always keeps me even when I'm stupid and do dumb things = He is not easily angered. He protects me like the great Father He is and always wants what's best for me = He protects, He hopes, He trusts, and He believes in me. He provides for me, has and always will be FAITHFUL to me = He never fails. When He moved into my life, I became whole. Through Jesus, the Best gift I have ever received = GRACE.
I AM GOD's BELOVED and He is My LOVE :-D
"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, 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. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
