LOVE 3
Still on the
topic love, we earlier discussed on the characteristics of love as love being a
sacrifice. Today, we are going to talk about another important characteristics
of love as love being patient.
LOVE IS
PATIENT; this can be first illustrated using the utmost love which is the love
of God. God’s love for man is patient. Tho we are sinners and have come short
of God’s glory,His patient love and grace has not allowed him to destroy us. Though
He is our creator and has the power to do all things, He is still very patient
with everyone of us and still stretches out his hand to reach to us. This is an
exemplary love that everyone should emulate.
All of us
are patient with ourselves no matter how many times we fail, we just keep trying.
Now, if we truly love others as we love ourselves and as we love God, we should
also exercise the same level of patience on other people.
Love even
when correcting, is not forceful and harsh, love corrects with love. For instance, when
teaching our younger ones, we don’t rush them and teach them like people of the
same age with us, we are always patient with them because we know that they don’t
have the same knowledge that we have. Therefore, we should learn to extend this
love we have for our children and loved ones to our neighbors and also to
strangers around us.
