What is love?

Goodboy

Just waiting for the Rapture at this point!
What is love?

I think every Christian should read this list every morning (including me) and see if they are showing love.

1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, it does not brag, and it is not proud.
1 Corinthians 13:5 Love is not rude, it is not selfish, and it cannot be made angry easily. Love does not remember wrongs done against it.
1 Corinthians 13:6 Love is never happy when others do wrong, but it is always happy with the truth.
1 Corinthians 13:7 Love never gives up on people. It never stops trusting, never loses hope, and never quits.

1) Is patient
2) Is kind
3) Is not jealous
4) Does not brag
5) Is not proud
6) Is not rude
7) Is not selfish
8) Cannot be made angry easily
9) Does not remember wrongs
10) Is never happy when others do wrong
11) Is always happy with the truth
12) Never gives up on people
13) Never stops trusting
14) Never loses hope
15) Never quits

Goodboy :)
 
You've got an uncanny talent of not only writing easy to understand articles but to help bring up songs i remember from the past.

The song titled is a dance song from the early 90's called "what is love , baby don't hurt me " by a guy called Haddaway and when i read the title of your post that song came into my head straight away LOL
 
I had to look up what translation you used bc I didnt memorize it this way-- I do like the way NCV has translated this passage. (y)

There's a Spencer Family Music version (sung by 4 young kids) called Love is Patient and Kind. There's something about listening to children sing back scripture that is so pure and blissful to my ears.

Normally I use the King James Version but it uses the word "Charity" rather than "Love" and I thought that might be confusing for some. So I used the Contemporary English Version which I thought was somewhat easier to understand. 👍

I like it! Apparently the New Century Version words it the same way bc thats what came up in my search.
