Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered, does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Does love truly endure all? Does it have limits? Is it always patient?
When do we say enough? Do we ever say enough?
When we think about love we have for our partner or our child, do we ever draw lines and should we?
My opinion is, love needs to endure all. Maybe not in a relationship but with family yes. At the end of the day, family, that's all you have. Friends will come and go, but your family is suppose to be there. We may have our limits, we may say enough but no matter what family is what you have at the end of the day.
When love doesn't endure all, where do go? When we say enough is enough.. who are we hurting more the other person or ourselves?
We may get hurt if its family or a partner, but you need to look into your heart and realize that no matter what mistake we make, no matter how big or small, we need to say I love you and I'm there.
Love isn't saying look what I have done for you. Love isn't saying my heart can not and will not endure any more pain from you.
Love is saying that no matter what I'm there for you. We all need to realize that people fall, and sometimes we fall hard.
We all have fallen and we all need help to get back up. But when people who say I love you, say enough, my heart is unable to endure anymore. Where does that leave you?
There are times when we need to pick ourselves up, but without someone there to say I'm here for you, you tend to be lost.
It has been said that we hurt the ones we love the most. That still isn't a reason to hurt someone, but in reality do we really realize that we are hurting them in that moment.
When it comes to family, and they start to shut the door on you, who do you have left besides yourself and God?
We are unable to always turn to God, he is unable to always lead us in the right direction. When people who we truly love start to close the door on us, who do we turn to?
How are we able to find the right path when we have no guidance?
Faith will carry you a long way and no matter what you have faith, its all about having faith in something.
But without the love from family or your partner where do you turn to?
This is why I feel love needs to endure all, with out what are we?
The world isn't as beautiful as some people see it. There is ugliness, there is death every day. There is pain every day. But that is why we have love, to help carry us through these hard times. No matter where you are in your life, if its going great or terrible with out love we fall and we will fall hard.
Endure and overcome....
