Patience with circumstances is one thing, patience with people is love.

Love is patient 1Co.13

Love is patient because love is willing to do whatever it takes to love. There may be feelings which help us patiently endure whatever is needed, but often our feelings are the very thing we must endure in order to love people. I may not like the person at the moment but I can still love them. Love is the way I treat someone not the way I feel about them. Love is a commitment which says I will act in a manner that always seeks what is best for you even if you do not do this for me. Love patiently endures for the better and does so especially through the worse. Conversations Within ts 5/7/2012 (Jax)
