Tomorrow we celebrate Valentine’s Day; a day in which we rejoice
in love and friendship. I think this verse reminds us of what truly
love means.
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it
is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is
not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but
rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things,
hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends; as for
prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as
for knowledge, it will pass away. For our knowledge is imperfect and
our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect
will pass away. When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought
like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man, I gave
up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to
face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I
have been fully understood. So faith, hope, love abide, these three;
but the greatest of these is love.
May we show this kind of love to all of God’s creatures!
