What Is Love

Well Love that's a commons word that has been used for along time.
Myself for along time was not able to say that I loved them because I didn't truly mean it so I was careful with that word. On Tuesday night at Refuge Karyn spoke about love and it really spoke to me. There's a scripture that we spoke about and that was 1Corinthians13 1-13.
What is Love
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love always protects
Love always trusts
Love always hopes
Love always persevered
Love never fails
Love does not envy
It does not boast
It is not proud
It is not rude
It is not self-seeking
It is not easily angered
It keeps no records of wrongs
Love does not delight in evil
But rejoices with the truth
It always protects
Always trusts
Love never fails

In verse 13 it says now these three remain: faith, hope, and love.
This topic on love has been something that I have been having troubles with because I don't know if I really do love the people I say I do. It is hard to tell if you truly love them or not. For me it is hard to love people when they have done something to me. Then all I want is to hurt them back. I have been praying a lot for God to help me to love. The key to love is to accept the love that God has for you. I think of it has looking at what God did for my sins. He sent his son to die for my sins. I still can't believe that after every thing I have done he still forgives me. I am going stay up on this love stuff so I can love people thee way I am suppose to.
