Love And Loving (5)

Love And Loving (5). the
In the previous series, it has been revealed that, God is love. Whoever says he has love without having God is a liar. He has something else.

As a personality, love has certain features with which you can identify it. Let me remind you that love is not a thing you should look for but a thing you should have to share with others.

By knowing those attributes of love, you can easily assess yourself whether or not you have love to share or not. Using 1 Corinthians chapter thirteen as our guide, let us mention (see) the attributes.

Attributes Of Love.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
1. Love is patient
2. It is kind.
3. Love is not jealous
4. It is not boastful.
5. Love is not proud.
6. It is not rude.
7. Love does not demand its own way.
8. It is not irritable.
9. Love keeps no record of being wronged.
10. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
11. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
12. It will last forever!
Beloved reader, how many of these features do you manifest? It is a scale with which to measure your "quantity" of love. What is your score after your self-assessment? Should you be looking for what you lack in others? You have to work on yourself rather than looking for love in others.

Let me bring this to a conclusion by declaring that all the attributes of love are what you need to display as a Godly person. Reason is that all these features are demonstrated by God. Having them in a man is Godliness. It is being like God. God is love. Do you have Him in your heart? Stay blessed and prepared for the coming of the Lord.
