Verse of the day

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7

Love can often be a "taboo" subject in today's times. However, the Bible gives very specific instructions on how to love. This particular chapter in the Bible is one of my favorites because in some ways I feel that Paul epitomizes love in this particular chapter, and as difficult as it may sound we should strive to love like this. More to come from this chapter at a later date.
