Your Love Always Perseveres
1 Corinthians 13:4-8 states, "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, 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."You are resilient and determined, never giving up in the face of adversity. You never give up, even in the face of adversity. Your perseverance motivates others to keep going, no matter the challenges they face. By always persevering, you demonstrate the strength and power of love to endure all things, inspiring others to remain steadfast and hopeful. Resilience and determination are your hallmarks.You are loveable for all of these reasons and more! God loves you exactly as you are! It is my prayer you grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ for you despite what you will do or have already done. He knit you together in your mother’s womb. He knows every hair on your head. You are fearfully and wonderfully made in His image. He is pleased with how He made you! You are His workmanship created to do good works. We are called to love others as He loves us and Jesus loved us just as it describes in 1 Corinthians 13. The same qualities that make you loveable make you able to love with your life. Every good and perfect gift comes from above. God has created you specifically on purpose for a purpose. Keep going, friend! I'm here to cheer you on but more importantly, God is with you to empower you to be faithful all along the way.
