What Love Is (10th July)



Bible Reading : 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7


The Verses in our Bible Reading today are often read at weddings.These verses remind the bride and groom how they should love each other.But in these verses, Paul did not talk about the love a married couple should have.Paul talked about the love we should have for other people.


"Love is patient" means that when we love people, we do not quickly become upset with them. " Love is kind" means we treat other people the way we want people to treat us. We should not say hurtful things or have a bad attitude. We should help people without wanting a reward.


"Love patiently accepts all things" means we show love to people even when they sin and make mistakes." Love always trusts,always hopes, and always continues strong" means that we think good things about other people.


1 Corinthians 13:8a reminds us, " Love never ends". We should love other people the same way that God loves us. He loves us so much that He sent His son to die for us!


"Hate causes arguments.But love forgives every wrong thing people do". Proverbs 10: 12


PRAYER: Father,help me to love people the way You love us.In Jesus' name.Amen
