1 Corinthians 13:4

Love does not parade itself.


Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Have you ever been around a secure person? When you know who you are, and know your own worth, you do not need to parade anything, seeking attention or praise from man. Know how God sees you and loves you! Internalize that love! --bask in it. You will, then, be able, to love others and give them attention, rather than demanding it for yourself by boasting or parading yourself and /or talents.

God Bless You!
