MENDING A BROKEN HEART!
1 Cor 13:7
7 Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever
ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all
circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening].

Love is a Superhero! “Beareth all things” is translated from the Greek panta stegei
which means “to endure, bear, sustain, cover, conceal, and contain.” Wow! Love
is strong – because it must be.
Love never gives up! It may be terribly wounded by a fickle subject, but it never abandons
the one it loves. The grand and distinguishing property of love is to cover and
conceal the fault of another. It is manifested in the painful cry from the
cross “Father, forgive them for they know not what they do.”
Love is not selfish! Love is a giver and not a taker. Love looks outward and not inward. Love
is always subject to being hurt. Love is sacrificial.
The entire Old
Testament book of Hosea is built on the command
for Hosea to marry a “whore”! This illustrated the pain felt by Jehovah caused
by His love for unfaithful people.
Dear Lord, thank you for your steadfast love. Let me love like you.
AMEN
