Endure

"As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease."

Genesis 8:22

Endure the trials and pains and rely completely on Jesus, for to live life to the utmost is to endure the troubles and pains of the world, as well as to enjoy the good blessings and abundances given to you.  Therefore,  whether we like it or not - good and bad, the world keeps turning, and if we want to live to the fullest we must decide to turn with it.

What does love do?

Love endures long and is patient and kind; love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy, is not boastful., conceited, rude (unmannerly) and does not act unbecomingly. Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it.  Love does not rejoice in injustice, it bears up under anything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless, and it endures everything.

Lastly, and most importantly, love never, ever, fails.

Adapted from 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Friends, that is what love does.
