It says...
LOVE is patient, LOVE is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. LOVE does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. LOVE never fails.
~ 1 Cor 13
All may seem easy to achieve if you look at them individually but if you were to lump them together, now that's a different ball game. How many of you out there can, without doubt, admit that you are capable of all these attributes that eventually lead to TRUE LOVE? We are just humans, imperfect beings, all fall short of glory. Still, we can steer ourselves onwards in putting these values into practice.
You have to learn to love yourself before you can love someone else. Are you ready for the long-term committment? Most importantly, are you ready to LOVE?
