Love

First post of the new year! Well not too much has changed since I last blogged but one new thing for everyone (not just me) is the start of a brand new year. I am anticipating this year will be a good one. God has blessed me with so many wonderful things.


If you have read my profile you know I am working my way through school, if you haven't read my profile you now know. ;) I started my semester just recently and I am doing pretty well. One thing I am having problems with though is the way some of my fellow classmates interact with each other. I would have thought that by now they would have learned that to get respect you have to give it. I understand not being so fond of certain people but if you just show some love towards them maybe they will let up a bit. God wants us to love one another not hate. This year my new year's resolution is to be more compassionate and to show more love. I wasn't put on this Earth to have the best come-backs or to be the most popular. I was put on this Earth so that I could spread the love that Jesus Christ shows me everyday. I think writing my resolution in this blog will keep me more accountable. Thanks everyone!

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. . .And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. - excerpts from 1 Corinthians 13:4-13
