Show Some Love To The People You Care About!

Valentines Day is a day to be cognizant of showing love to those that are special in your life. Some people buy gifts, such as flowers, chocolates, diamonds, or pearls. Others create an experience such as massages, specials dinners, night on the town, or romantic evenings.

All of these ideas are great and exciting, hoping to receive something special myself. But, God shares with us, in His word, a few other ideas about love.  In the Book of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8, the word of God teaches us the real meaning of love.

1. Patient

2. Kind

3. Does not envy

4. Is not Jealous

5. Does not boast(vain)

6. Is not proud(conceited, arrogant)

7. Is not rude

8. Is not self-seeking

9.  Not resentful(angered)

10. Keeps no record of wrong done

11. Does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness 

12. Rejoices when right and truth prevails

13.  Protects

14. Trust

15.  Hopes

16. Perseveres

17. Unfailing

A diamond is forever, but forgiveness gives life to the recipient. A box of chocolate is sweet, but hope empowers others to press forward in the mist of a storm or while trying to pursue a dream.  a night of romance can be enduring, but unfailing, unconditional love gives a person courage to face the world.

Coaching Challenge

Show some mad love to the people in your life.  Show love to a complete stranger. The opportunity to give a valentine to others are numerous, priceless, and free.

To your success in life...
