“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.” 1Co13.7
We are told that God is love. Is it any wonder then, that love is described the appropriate dynamic for all things. The driving force in love is goodness. We love when we seek what is good for those around us.
Love is appropriate because love appropriates. It takes to itself the welfare of others and seeks to shore up all weakness. Love will bear with the failings of others without comment. Love will look to God for those who can’t lift up their eyes and hope beside those who have lost all hope. Love is said to find suitable strength to endure trial, with others, and for others, because God Himself is the sustaining goodness behind such actions. When we live in love, we are said to live in God. As we live in Him He also is living in us. It humbling then to realize, that it is really His hand, using our hand, to hold the hand of those in need. 2/12/07 ts
Just me trying to be honest with God.
