1Corinthians 13:7 (Love) “…endures all things…”
After reading the commentaries and spending time in prayer, this is what I’ve figured out ‘enduring all things’ means:
We are to hold our faith closely and dearly as we travel this journey called life. When affliction, insult or other calamity comes our way, we are to refer to the beginning of the passage I’ve been exploring this month –
1Corinthians 13:4 & 5 “Love is patient and is kind; love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, 5 doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil;”
And above all, we are promised that no matter what comes our way,
“We know that all things work together for good for those who love God,” Romans 8:28.
We cannot say why we are to endure some things, however if we ‘keep the faith’ as some say, we can endure with grace and gratefulness.
