Love.

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;  bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

 Love never fails.
 
~ 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
 
Jesus is love.
 
Jesus suffered immensely, and still suffers today when we break his heart. He shows kindness. He does not envy. He isn't arrogant or conceited. He isn't rude or selfish. He is not provoked. He thinks no evil and does not take joy in sin but in truth. He bears all things. He believes and hopes all things. He endured all things.
 
HE NEVER FAILS.
 
The only way we can truly love anyone, is through Jesus. People are broken and sinful, and are bound to disappoint. If we love them in our own strength it won't last very long. But if we can love them through Jesus, we can trust in Jesus and place our hope in Him. And when the person inevitably disappoints, we can forgive and love again through JESUS. Because He NEVER failed us, and never will. So long as we have Him, we have EVERYTHING.
