Living Love

You can know a lot, do a lot, teach a lot, and care a lot—but if you don’t love a lot, you’re not a lot of good!

Too often our view of love is flawed and influenced by the culture that surrounds us. We begin to define love as the world does—a fleeting variety that lasts only as long as it’s convenient or brings excitement and happiness. But that’s not how love is described in 1 Corinthians. God’s love is bigger and deeper and endless. He loves us—and expects nothing in return. His love never fails.

What would your relationships be like if you loved this way? Do you even have a desire to love unhindered in this manner?

Are you struggling to love someone in your life right now who hurt or betrayed you? And yet God asks you to project the unfailing love He has for you to people in your world. How do you do that?
Is there a difference between a healthy self-image and pride? We read in 1 Corinthians 8:1 that while knowledge “puffs up,” love “builds up.” How do you put your gifts and God-given potential to use and remain humble in the process?
Envy is something many of us struggle with, especially in today’s culture. The problem is that all too soon envy of what someone owns or has accomplished morphs into jealousy where we don’t want them to have or enjoy what they have!
We’re often tempted to live our lives out of our emotions where ugly things like frustration, anger, jealousy, and impatience rise to the surface. But love is patient. Love wins over difficult people. Love wins over unlovable people.
Our greatest human need is love—to know we’re loved and able to give love in return. But in our broken world, some of us have been so hurt that we’ve lost the ability to receive and give love—from God and others.
