Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not
boast, it is not proud. IT does not dishonor others, 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. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Yesterday
I wrote about cutting ties with past relationships that were toxic to your
life. Not all relationships that end are bad. There are various reasons to stop
a relationship from going forward. If you have reason to question things in
that relationship or don’t feel its right, a break is good so you can see the
way forward. Relationships are work and a lot of give and take. If you aren’t
willing to be “fluid” in a relationship, then maybe its not right for you, or
at best a brief pause so you can evaluate it with God’s help.
So, moving
forward with this blog, lets talk about “Love”. The bible talks about love and
its importance. In 1 Cor 13:13 it says….”And now abide in faith, hope, love,
these three but the greatest of these is love.”. Love is the glue that binds
two people together. Today’s passage above gives a good definition of what love
should look like, feel like and experience between you and the one you are
with.
You
might be reading these verses and thinking to yourself, that’s a tall order. True.
God authored love in the truest sense and He has someone special just for you.
Maybe you are with them today, how is your love life lining up with God’s definition?
If there is an area of your love life that needs work, maybe it’s time to focus
on patching up the torn pieces so you can make your love the strongest glue on
the market.
For
those searching for the love of their life, the key is trusting in God to lead
you to the right one. He can do that through various ways, but the key is to
always seek out the right one through the eyes of God. His eyes have a vision
of love and can see clearly through the muddiest of souls and lead you to the
one who’s meant to fulfil His purpose and be bound in Godly love. Everyone else
is just cheap glue that will weaken and fall apart in time.
The next
time you find yourself immersed in a relationship, hold up these verses to the
relationship and see how it measures up. If there are areas missing or
completely opposite of God’s interpretation, then they aren’t the right fit for
you. Seek out Godly love and you’ll never have to worry about falling apart
again. God bless!
