But the Greatest of these is Love
Love is Patient that means tolerant long suffering charitable. Love is not quick tempered. It accepts others as they are and will listen and pray asking God's guidance in difficult times. Love doesn’t prejudge.
Love is kind, love is thoughtful, caring gentle and compassionate. Love recognises the needs of others without looking for any reward or repayment.
Love does not envy, is not spiteful revengeful, love doesn’t carry resentments. Love permits others to be free to be who God says they are, not what we think they should be but encourage those you love to reach there full potential.
Love is not proud, love is never arrogant egotistical superior. Love doesn’t put others down. Love is not rude but love respects others.
Love is not self-seeking, love doesn’t use others to promote self. Love doesn’t expect everything in life to be centred around them.
Love is not easily angered, love is not easily hurt, love doesn’t get upset on its own behalf. Love is not resentful or easily irritated annoyed or out of sorts bad tempered or cantankerous. Love helps to heal others wounds.
Love over looks the faults and flaws of others, lets face it we all have character flaws no one is perfect.
Love doesn’t keep records of past wrongs and hurts. Love doesn’t take pleasure in others failures.
Love doesn’t relish in evil, love should not rejoice or gloat at injustices that have happened even to those who have wronged or hurt you.
Love never fails never gives up or quits even in difficult, adverse times and situations, love keeps on going - love endures.
Faith, hope and love, the greatest of these is LOVE. For God so loved the world that He gave hHis Son. God is still giving His LOVE.
There is so much more teaching to this study
I pray this will help you in your journey
God Bless
