How much do we love?

While reading a book, the question about "how much do we really love?" was presented. "Of course, I love a lot..." was my answer. The author argued that genuine love must reflect God's definition of love. 

I was challenged when reading some of these lines from the Bible. However, I was also encouraged to be a more loving person. Hope you are encouraged by this ancient text as well. May we all love better every day.

Here 1st Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is very patient and kind, never jealous or envious, never boastful or proud, never haughty or selfish or rude. Love does not demand its own way. It is not irritable or touchy. It does not hold grudges and will hardly even notice when others do it wrong.It is never glad about injustice, but rejoices whenever truth wins out.If you love someone, you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost. You will always believe in him, always expect the best of him, and always stand your ground in defending him.

Have a lovely day!
