LOVE IS...

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

"⁴Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  ⁵It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.  ⁶Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  ⁷It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always preservers."

Love is willing to wait instead of demanding, "prove you care, now!"

Love keeps on being friendly to people who aren't friendly back.

Love doesn't hate the girl who goes out with the guy you like.

Love doesn't brag about your good grades or the touchdown you made in Friday night's game.

Love isn't stuck up.  Love doesn't think you're better than others because your clothes are more expensive.

Love lets others have their turn talking.  It never puts others down by acting like they don't count.

Love doesn't insist on getting all the credit or being one of the popular crowd.

Love doesn't lose its temper when a brother or sister hogs the phone or spends too much time in the bathroom.

Love doesn't hold grudges.  It doesn't keep thinking over and over again about how someone hurt you.

Love doesn't think doing wrong is cool.

Love looks out for the interests of others.

Love keeps on trusting God even when the right choices you make don't turn out the way you want.

Love keeps on expecting the best.

Love doesn't give up just because something goes wrong or because your feeling are hurt.  God is in charge, so those who love just keep right on loving.
