Day thirteen
of the 86 day challenge. The verse of encouragement today is...
Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NLT
Wow. You have to really stop and think about that for a minute. "I can't do that!" you may scream at the verse. Well, you’re right. No one can!! The only one who can is Jesus. You may roll your eyes. Fight that habit for the moment and read.
Do you love your family like this? When your parents are right do you rejoice or blow up in anger? When a sibling is bugging you do you patiently see what they want or do you yell "bug of you little brat!" If you can't love your family how can you possibly love the man you'll marry one day?!
Your single years can be looked at as special and unique. You'll be single for a certain amount of time and married the rest. So why not choose now to explore what true love really is in Jesus Christ!
