I was finally able to recite I Corinthians 13 for Shawn and was thrilled to be able to pick up the charm I had put on hold. With February being the traditional month of love, I anticipated that the one I picked out would be sold out if I didn't get it soon.I liked the "I Love You" part because I would purpose to use those words and mean them as I Corinthians 13 defines them.
"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand it's own way, is not irritable, and keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance."
Most of us want to be loved by someone in this way but we all know that living out those words can feel impossible at times. In a I'll love you for better and leave you for worse society, a person who lives these words is definitely a gem. I'd like to be that kind of person. Wouldn't you?
