When I Love You Like I Should

When you read Paul’s letter to the Philippians, you will notice that he had mostly positive things to say. 

Though the church was not perfect (none are), Paul loved those people, always praying for God to give them grace and peace. 

Philippians 1:3  I thank my God upon every remembrance of you.

True love sees the best in others.

1 John 4:21 And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.

When I love you like I should, I will not zero in on your negatives. I have minuses in my life too. 

When I love you like I should, I will pray for you when I see something I don’t like, but I won’t criticize you or talk about you. 

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil; Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;  Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
