A Way Of Being
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NLT) Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.

Take your time and slowly read today’s scripture passage again so you can really take in what it is saying. Real agape love is wonderful, even though we don’t always demonstrate it through our words and deeds. It’s good to be able to be honest about that, don’t you agree? God appreciates our honesty.
Our takeaway from today’s scripture is this: Love is more than a good feeling. Love is a way of being.
You and I know about a Person Who personified love on our behalf. His Precious Name is Jesus.
