When I read this, I think about how I display my love for others.
We are told to love our neighbors as ourselves... I think the recipe for doing that is contained within the following passages.
Am I meeting God's expectations? Is my display of love representative of my God? How do my love displays influence others?
Is my love for others increasing God's kingdom? Is yours?
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
New International Version (NIV)
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
