Love

I feel so much better now. I am not angry anymore.

I come across this passage from the bible. Taken from 1 Corinthians 13.

What if I could speak
all languages of humans and angels?
If I did not love others,
I would be nothing more than a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.

What if I could prophesy and understand all secrets and all
knowledge?
And what if I had faith that moved mountains?
I would be nothing, unless I loved others.

What if I gave away all that I owned and let myself be burned alive?
I would gain nothing, unless I loved others.

Love is kind and patient, never jealous, boastful, proud, or rude.
Love isn't selfish or quick tempered.
It doesn't keep record of wrongs that others do.
Love rejoices in the truth, but not in evil.
Love is always supportive, loyal, hopeful, and trusting.
Love never fails!

Everyone who prophesies will stop, and unknown languages will no longer be
spoken.
All that we know will be forgotten.
We donn't know everything and our prophecies are not complete.
But what is perfect will someday appear, and what isn't perfect will then
disappear.

When we were children, we thought and reasoned as children do.
But then we grew up, we quit our childish ways.
Now all we can see of God is like a cloudy picture in a mirror.
Later we will see him face to face.
We don't know everything but then we will, just as God completely
understands us.
For now there are faith, hope, and love.
But of these three, the greatest is love.

God knows what I am going through. I trust in Him. Oh I feel much better.
