Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 1 Corinthians 13:4,7
Plainly and simply put-we all want to be loved. There are people who may claim otherwise, but we are all created with the same basic need and desire to be loved. After dealing with a recent family emergency and witnessing first hand the love of a couple that has been married for over 42 years, I think that I am still learning what 'true love' genuinely is...
When you love someone, you must be willing to open up and share your feelings, fears, ideas, and experiences with that other person. When you love someone, you must be willing to talk to that person. When you love someone, you must be willing to work on solving problems in the relationship together with that other person.
One of the most commonly read Bible verses at any wedding comes from the book of Corinthians and describes genuine love as love that is marked by generosity, willingness to change, grow and mature, and the willingness to share the good and bad over a lifetime with another person.
