"Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]." 1 Corinthians 13:7 (AMP)
Think about it: Love (its strong, always-believing-the-best
hope) is fadeless (doesn't weaken or falter in the slightest) under all
circumstances...ALL circumstances...come what may. It endures everything without weakening.
WOW...does your love
for others (everyone) endure everything without weakening? What would that look like? It
would take a lot humility and quick forgiveness that’s for sure. Allowing
others to be human and make mistakes even if that means your feelings get hurt
in the process…not bringing every perceived weakness to someone's
attention...believing the best of everyone, instead of insisting you know what
they really meant! Whoo...believe me...I'm preaching to myself as much as
anyone...but trust me...when we can humble ourselves, put others first and
display this Love at all times, our relationships are sooooo much better!
Here's a motto we would do good to hang on to: "Everyone Everything." Meaning we are to love everyone and endure and forgive everything.
Just something to think about....
