I responded to a post yesterday asking what unconditional love was. Everyone came up with interesting answers and I began to explore what unconditionl love was to me.
Randomly when looking at Wikipedia for some information, I found a random Bible quote. No I don't affiliate but I find reading it can sometimes be enlightening. Here's what unconditional love is to me:
Quote:
|
Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, ... It bears all things, ... endures all things. Love never fails.
|
(1 Corinthians 13:4-8, NAB)
This quote really spoke to me because recently I've been having some issues with friendships and being too selfish. I was really trying to figure out what I needed to do and realized I had to be the complete opposite from selfishness. I needed to be unconditional.
What do you guys think about this quote?
