LOVE-
Love is a very powerful source. The bible even states at one point, "GOD is Love." (1 John 4:8) In actuality, there are three types of love, superficial or what I call worldly love, friendly love, and GOD's love. Superficial love would be similar to stating "I love those shoes." Or "I love basketball." It may have passion, but not a real source. Friendly love (philadelphia-Greek) is that towards a friend, or an acquaintance, it may or may not be sincere. GOD's love better known to some as Agape (Greek) love is my favorite of the three. Corinthians 13 breaks this love down to its simplicity. Love is longsuffering, kind, it doesn't envy. Love is not boastful or prideful, rather it is humble. Love does not act unseemly, it isn't selfish, it isn't easily angered and it THINKS NO Evil! Love does not rejoice in iniquity but it rejoices in truth. Love Bears all things, believes all things, continually hopes in all things, continually endures all things. Love NEVER FAILS!!! What a statement, "LOVE NEVER FAILS!" People can fail, but true love cannot. Relationships can fail, but true love cannot. Circumstances can fail, but true love cannot. What I am really saying is regardless of the situation or events that are taking place in our life we can rest assured in one thing. Only one- JESUS! Why you might ask? Well its simple; JESUS can't fail, because he is true love. "GOD IS LOVE" (1 John 4:8).
