Enduring Love

1 Corinthians 13:7d Love endures all things

We are speaking here about the abiding love of God in a Christian’s heart. Do you really think that anything from the outside world could ever possibly touch that love? It is God’s love, perfect, pure, holy, sanctifying, righteous, and the essence of God Himself. Really? Do you think anything can touch it?

Can’t touch this.

If that is true, and I do believe it is true, then what does love truly endure?

Me!

Love endures my ignoring it.

Love endures my disobedience of it.

Love endures my hiding it.

Love endures my flat refusal of releasing it.

Love endures my shame.

Love endures my walls.

Love endures me.

Eventually as love does what love does in me, it will break down every wall, every obstacle, every thought, every broken piece of me, to be what God needs me to be in this world.

All I have to do is subject myself to Him.

Romans 12:1-2 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Love will endure me and prove itself.
