US AGAINST THE WORLD: Biblical Loveตัวอย่าง

Key Verse: “Love is patient, love is kind…” 1 Corinthians 13:4a

Devotional: 

From Tamela: Patience is the first way to know that love is present. As I said earlier, many people are attracted by instant gratification, but when you are patient, you are willing to wait until your spouse is ready. You won’t rush them to become something or someone that they aren’t ready to become. You’ll wait on the things that take a little more time for them. You won’t demand that everything be perfect immediately. Love allows you to walk with your spouse as they grow and mature. Love helps you to see something in your spouse worth waiting for. When you really love your spouse, it will help you to see your own shortcomings before you impatiently bring up theirs.

From David: Love is also kind. By kind, that means I must speak to Tam in a manner that honors her. I learned a long time ago that a soft answer turns away wrath, so I speak to her the way I want her to speak to me—lovingly, thoughtfully, and softly. The question is, are you kind to your spouse? Would he call you gentle with your words? Would she say that you are a safe place for her? Kindness is a discipline that must be developed within us, every day, on purpose.
