Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:7 (NRSV) – “[Love] bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.”
Reflection:
Love stays when it would be easier to walk away. It believes the best, hopes for better, and endures when life gets hard. This kind of love transforms communities — a love that doesn’t give up on people.
Application:
Reach out to someone you haven’t spoken to in a while and remind them they matter to you.
Writing Prompt:
Who has “stayed” in your life when others walked away? How has that shaped you?
Prayer:
Faithful God,
Thank you for your enduring love. Help me to reflect that love in my relationships — staying present, hopeful, and committed.
Amen.
