love: noun
webster's definition -strong affection for another arising out of kinship or personal ties - an assurance of affection - warm attachment, enthusiasm, or devotion
God's definition - is patient, is kind. It 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 record of wrongs. It does not delight in evil, but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails... ~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a
May we all desire to love by God's definition not just today, but everyday!

ReplyDeleteI always love your lists:) I hope you are enjoying this day of love surrounded by loved ones!
ReplyDeleteI came over from Ann’s today. I know it’s two days after the fact. But there are so many grateful lists to read – all of them so good. And yours is too. It was a blessing.
ReplyDeleteFirst – so true – it is all about love – everything is about love – amen.
My favorite from your thankful list is this one: A dear friend preparing for the birth of her baby girl after nine years of waiting (that has got to be joy – oh the patience – and now the gift – and that you share that joy – that’s awesome)
God Bless and Keep you and your family
