“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.”
1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NLT
When it’s my turn to write the blog post and one of the sections is a popular one, I always try to write about a different section because it might seem “too easy” to comment on the popular one. But today I thought I should put my pride aside and comment on the popular section.
The part that stood out to me about this verse is how love keeps no record of being wronged. Love is completely selfless. This is the kind of love Jesus has for us. He died for us and now our records are wiped clean. There’s no record of how we wronged Him (though it happens multiple times every day). And this is the kind of love we should have for others. We should be quick to wipe their records clean, and not keep tally of every bad thing someone has done to us. In the end, we will even probably be happier for it.
