1 Corinthians 13

Love is patient.
Love does not envy.
Love is not proud.
Love always perseveres.
Love always protects.
Love is not self-seeking.
Love keeps no record of wrongs
Love does not delight in evil.
Love is not easily angered.
Love rejoices with the truth.
Love is kind.
Love always hopes.
Love does not boast.
Love is not rude.
Love always trusts. 

Love never fails. 



The ones in bold are the ones I think I struggle the most with.


It sure is hard to love. By the strength of the Holy Spirit though, I believe mankind can love.

Love: to me that looks like doing my part despite the effort it takes, putting effort and intention into my work, so that others don't have to pick up my slack. .. I don't mean that I would no longer need other people. .. just that if I'm truly serving others and giving myself sacrificially, others shouldn't have to pick up after me and do my work for me.

Also... killing my pride.. . that's love. Man, it's hard to give up pride.
