Love Never Fails

Critical thinking becomes deadly when you use it toward another human. Critical thinking then becomes judgmentalism, pride, and criticism. These can bring pain, depression, and hopelessness to the other person. Ask Me to replace your habit of critical thinking with Love, humility, understanding, and compassion. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no account of wrongs. 6 Love takes no pleasure in evil, but rejoices in the truth. 7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails. 1 Thessalonians 5:14 And we urge you, brothers, to admonish the unruly, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, and be patient with everyone. 15 Make sure that no one repays evil for evil. Always pursue what is good for one another and for all people.… Ephesians 4:2-3 Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace.

Jealousy: Unyielding as the Grave

/ Pearls of Wisdom, Posts / / , , , , , , , , , , , , , , ,

  Jealousy is like a defective gun. It fires at the object while exploding in the hands of the owner. Detach from all but Me. Then you will be safe from deadly jealousy. Attach to Me alone. Then you will bless others and not bring a curse on them. Love My Love for you. Only it will fulfill you. Proverbs 10:12 Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all offenses. Proverbs 14:30 A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones. Proverbs 27:4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy? 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. Psalm 143:8-9 Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life. 9 Rescue me from my enemies, LORD, for I hide myself in you. Song of Solomon 8:6-7 6 Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm; for love is as strong as death, its jealousy unyielding as the grave. It burns like blazing fire, like a mighty flame. 7 Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot sweep it away. If one were to give all the wealth of one’s house for love, it would be utterly scorned.

A Consuming Fire

Jealousy is an all consuming fire. The irony of jealousy is that it destroys both the one who is jealous and the object of that one’s desire. Proverbs 14:30 A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy rots the bones. Proverbs 27:4 Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy? James 3:14 But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth. 15  Such “wisdom” does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic.16 For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. 1 Corinthians 3:3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? 1 Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud Galatians 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.
