1 Corinthians 13:5

[Love] is not provoked.


Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

Webster's dictionary says that annoying, vexing things are what 'provokes' one into action. Some Bibles translate the above text, "[love] is not easily angered," or "[love] is not irritable." How do you respond when annoying or vexing things come against you, especially when you are feeling down, or your nerves feel on edge, anyway? In the future, let love be your response.

God Bless You!
