1 Corinthians 13:4

Love suffers long...

Greetings Bible Enthusiast!

We could write a twenty page essay on this one, couldn't we? What does 'suffer long' mean? Not yelling when your loved one forgets to put the toilet seat down, or put the cap back on the toothpaste, perhaps? Not 'losing it' if someone hits your brand new car? Patiently answering a child's 9,834th question? It varies for each individual. In your heart, you probably know what is required of you to 'suffer long.'

God Bless You!

FEATURED FUNNY:

When I dropped my son off at college, we found that he was assigned to the fourth floor of a dormitory. As I trudged through the parking lot to retrieve yet another load to carry up the four flights of stairs, two young women caught my attention from a dorm window. "Hey, Mom!" one called down. "Yo, Mom!"

I was too tired to respond, so I just ignored them until I heard the second girl ask the first, "How do you know that woman is somebody's mom?"

The first girl replied, "Who else would do that?"
