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 truth.
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Whenever I am anything but patient, I am not permeating love.
Whenever I am not kind to others, I am not giving to my fellow brother or sister in love.
When I envy, boast or I am proud, I am doing for my own good and not of another, which is not love.
I personally need to examine all of these, however, the red highlighted words I need the most work on.
When I'm not patient, easily angered, or self-seeking during the next week, I'd like to stop what I'm doing and think, how could I do what I am doing with love?
Don't you think this could effect You, Me and Everyone In Between?
