1 Corinthians 13

janethegiant:

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. 

And now these three remain: faith, hope and love.
But the greatest of these is love.

We’re all having nervous breakdowns about Meryl and the Oscars…

IMAGINE HOW SHE MUST BE FEELING

Oh, my heart

1 corinthians 13

There was a time I didnt believe He existed.

I didnt believe there was a God whom created all this.

Times are hard and rough these days.

I blamed Him.

I blamed Him for doing all this to us.

It isnt His fault.

It’s our fault.

Everybody has their opinion.

I respect you all.

Wheter you believe or not.

No I dont live like the Bible says I need to do.

Yes I have tattoos.

Yes I have piercings.

A time ago.

I didnt want to live anymore.

I couldnt feel love anymore.

I couldnt feel anything anymore.

He brought me to this family.

This family dedicates all to God.

We we’re sitting on the dinner table.

She started reading from the Bible.

I wasnt listening like, always.

Cuz I didnt care what they were saying.

I didnt believe so.

But she started reading.

she read.

¹ If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a ringing brass gong or a clashing cymbal.

 ² And if I have the gift of prophecy and I know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I canremove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

 ³ And if I parcel out all my possessions, and if I hand over my body in order that I will be burned,^[a] but do not have love, it benefits me nothing.

 ⁴ Love is patient, love is kind, love is not jealous, it does not boast, it does not become conceited, 

⁵ it does not behave dishonorably, it is not selfish^[b], it does not become angry, it does not keep a record of wrongs, 

⁶ it does not rejoice at unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth,

 ⁷ bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

 ⁸ Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will pass away. If there are tongues, they will cease. If there is knowledge, it will pass away.

⁹ For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 

¹⁰ but whenever the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.

¹¹ When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I set aside the things of a child. 

¹² For now we see through a mirror indirectly^[c], but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I will know completely, just as I have also been completely known.

 ¹³ And now these three things remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

I didnt know what I heard.

It slapt me in the face.

I never felt so much love.

Yes, it saved my life.

He’s there.

He want to help me.

I cant explain in words what that piece means to me.

It’s a miracle.

It’s everything.
