February: The Month of Love

The Webster’s Dictionary defines love as a strong affection or liking for someone or something, and I Corinthians 13:4-7 states what God says love is. This month there will be many stores that will be selling a lot of things that this world says represents what love is, but God’s word tells me different. God’s word tells me that love is a choice that someone makes regardless of the situation or how he other person may act. Because I am a child of the Most High I have been told that I must love the people of this world regardless of how they may act. But loving people can be hard, so that is why I have chosen to blog about what I am so thankful for during February to remind myself to love and to be appreciative of what God has blessed me with. I find myself forgetting, which causes me to fall into depression, but then I remind myself that God didn’t create me with  spirit of fear, but a spirit of power, love, and a sound mind. And with God’s word coming out of my mouth I remember that I was created with a purpose and I must continue to walk it out with God instead of just accepting what this world say I can have (because Gods word says I can have what I say I can have).

So, today, on February 2, 2013 I am thankful for God and the fact that He can’t lie. I am so thankful to know God for myself, and I know for myself that He can’t lie. I Corinthians 13:4-8 states: “Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtily. It is not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride); it is not rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God’s love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it [it pays no attention to a suffered wrong]. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail. Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances, and it endures everything [without weakening]. Love never fails [never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end]. As for prophecy (the gift of interpreting the divine will and purpose), it will be fulfilled and pass away; as for tongues, they will be destroyed and cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away [it will lose its value and be superseded by truth].”

What are you thankful for today? That is the question for this month, so think about it, write it down, and share it if you like. But use it to remind your self that God is real and He really loves you….. Until next time…..
