LOVE

Love is patient, love is kind.
(1 Cor 13:4)


There is no passion greater than love. There is no feeling as demanding as love. The Songs of Songs records... "for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame." (Songs 8:6) Yet true love is willing to wait. It is long suffering and patient. God who is love, has loved us as sinners and is willing to endure our disobedience perchance we turn to Him.
The other mark of love is kindness. To be gentle and merciful. Love is not ruthless and indifferent but will stoop down and show tenderness. Anything that is unkind is not love. How deep then the Father's love for us for His loving-kindness endures forever?!
