Today’s Scripture
“Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. 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]. Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end].”
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Today’s Thought
The fruit of love must be developed in your life daily… Every area we have of love deficiency affects how we respond to the people around you…Remember faith responds to problems like God would and love responds to people like God would.
Today’s Confession
Lord, thank you for helping me to develop the fruit of love in my life…Help me to always respond in faith to difficult situations, and to respond in love and kindness to those around me… Help me everyday to see through the eyes of love.
