My Kind of Love

Love… How do we define love?

Through time, people came up with various definitions of love. The most popular ones include:

- love is a many splendored thing
- love is blind
- love is like a rosary, full of mysteries

And many more others. But what is love really? In my previous post, I said that God is love and it is true – He is the epitome of love. However, there’s a more detailed description of love in the Bible. And for me, it perfectly describes God’s love as well.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 (NIV)
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.

This verses clearly spells out to us what love is and how we should love.

My prayer is that we will all learn to love like this so we can make this world a better place. Amen.
