1 Corinthians 13:7Valentine's Day is here and it is a great time to think about what true love should be and there's no better place to find that than 1 Corinthians 13. For the difficult times we live in nothing could be more important on this Valentine's Day than reminding yourself about how love should be able to endure anything. "Love never gives up, never looses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance (1 Cor. 13:7 NLT)" Bad economy, unemployment, sickness, financial problems, bad days shouldn't stop love. Real love makes it through all those things. It grows stronger during difficulties, it pulls together to overcome the obstacles. Let the rings on your fingers be a reminder of your marriage vows to make it in good times and bad times. When all is said and done the Bible emphasizes that love is the greatest, above all, and is one thing that lasts forever. Paul talks about how you could do all kinds of great things and have all kinds of knowledge but if you don't love others you have nothing. Everything we do as Christians should be a direct result of our love for God and for other people. Our love should be unconditional and keep no record of wrongs, just like God's love. We must be forgiving and forgetting each other sins and love even those that we've had disagreements with, otherwise we're no different than those of the world. Think of ways you can make this a day of love like no other, not only for your spouse or boy or girlfriend, but for everyone you come in contact with.
Here are several great songs about love for your Valentine's Day:
