Grace for your spirit
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. The one who does love, does not know God, for God is love. I John 4:7-8
I Corinthians 13 says, love is patient, kind, not jealous, doesn't brag, isn't arrogant, doesn't act unbecomingly, does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in truth. Love bears, believes, hopes and endures all things. Love never fails. We know God is love, so you could replace the word love with God, and the text would still be accurate. When we are truly born of God and know God, we will have that God type love in us. Now we can put our name in the text where love appears. Love is patient, etc. God is patient, etc. I am patent, etc. If our name doesn't fit in that context, maybe we don't know God as we should.
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit
