Love is patient,

Love, seeks the Lord.

 

love is kind,

Heart speaks to heart; head speaks to head. 

 

it does not envy,

A little envy is like a little poison.

 

it does not boast,

Proverbs 16:18

 

it is not proud.

The proud try to take care of themselves, but the humble lean on God and get His help.

 

It is not rude,

James 1:26

 

it is not self-seeking,

Matthew 6:33 

 

it is not easily angered,

Proverbs 29:11

 

it keeps no record of wrongs. 

Written or otherwise.

 

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.

John 8:32

 

It always protects,

That includes the unborn.

 

always trusts, 

At times, with only the faith of a mustard seed.

 

always hopes,

Hebrews 11:1

 

always perseveres.

1 John 4:4

 

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, 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 the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

-- 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

About The Author Ginny: I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I am a wife to Ed Hamlin and we are two becoming one. I am the daughter of a courageous woman who continues to battle breast cancer with the sword of the Spirit and a sense of humor. I am blessed to be the mother of two adult-children who stir thankfulness in my heart every day. I am the proud grandmother of: Emeline Sophia Munn, Adrian Robert Bunn, and Isla Elizabeth Munn. I also have three bonus adult-children (we’re a blended family) and five little ones to love on: Madison, Alekzander, Jayden, Kalob, and Jordan - the grandchildren. I enjoy a rainy day at home in front of a roaring fire in the fireplace with my handsome man snuggled up next to me as we share a luscious dessert and watch Hitchcock movies back-to-back. (Yes, that’s a run-on sentence. Hehe.) Hugs to my in-laws: the Ranieri’s (Joe and Lydia), who model marriage so lovingly. I believe Marriage Takes Three…God, husband and wife.
