1 Corinthians 13:7
The four aspects of love doing something in this passage: bearing all things (Romans 8:35-39, Mark 7:20-23, we need to address sin rightly), believe all things (context of the idea of faith, 2 Corinthians 4:16-17, Christ is sufficient, Book Recommendation: The Weight of Glory by C.S. Lewis, God promises that every provision we need He will perfectly provide in His timing, respond in faith to believe the best in other believers), hopes all things ("it never despairs", love ought to drive us to hope because of our hope in who He is, love will drive us to pray), endures all things (bear up under/despite the difficulty to demonstrate endurance, Isaiah 40:31, love waits!, 1 John 5:4), 1. Examine: How are you doing in those four areas of love? 2. Examine & Apply: How are you preparing to love when suffering comes?
