True love originates from the heart

When we love, we will be patient and kind with others.

We will not envy others' success because it wil be our passion to see them win.
We will never boast of ourselves and refrain from all haughtiness and pride.
We will not demand our own way.
We will not be irritable because of our impatient attitude.
We will keep no record of when we have been wronged but choose to forgive and release any debts.
We will never smile upon injustice, but our passion will be for mercy and truth.
We will never give up on people or lose faith and we will always hope and believe the best.
We will always see others innocent unless proven guilty, and even when then we will remain hopeful for repentance and restoration.
We will be full of hope and endure any hardship for the benefit of the kingdom or another's well-being.

Bottom Line: We will live for the godly edification of others, which is only found in their conformity to Christ and fulfilling His will in their lives.

Driven by Eternity - John Bevere Pg 252
