here is my problem. do we not remember what LOVE is? what LOVE represents?
LOVE is JESUS. LOVE = JESUS.
{1 Corinthians 13:4-8...}
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
if the person hits you: that is "easily angered" & not "always protects"
if the person cheats on you: that is "dishonoring others" & "self-seeking"
if the person mocks you/makes fun of you: that is "proud" & not "kind"
if the person lies to you: that is not "always trusts"
if the person is always negative about life: that is not "always hopes"
if the person always leaves angry and threatens your relationship: that is not "always perseveres"
if the person keeps breaking things off with you, then begging the next day: that is not "always trusts"
if your kind of LOVE is JESUS, then you must be:
patient, kind, not envious, not boastful, not proud, not dishonoring of others, not self-seeking, not easily angered, keep no record of wrongs, do not delight in evil, rejoice in truth, always protective, always trusting, always hopeful, always persevering, and having your love NEVER fail.
all these things are LOVE. "all" you need is love? "love is all you need"?
if your relationship does not show any of these things, your relationship will not survive on "just LOVE"
