16 Characteristics of the God-Kind of Love - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8Näide

Day 9 – Love thinks no evil

In a world where evil thinking is prevalent, many people struggle to trust others. Some, due to business fraud and relationship deception, have concluded that a certain category of people is evil, which is not the case.

In 1 Corinthians 13:5, one of the characteristics Apostle Paul gave about love is that it thinks no evil. So, that means, people who walk in love are so soaked up in God’s goodness that they don’t have space in their minds to think evil of anybody, much more to talk about it. Have you ever seen such people before? Well, for me, it’s a “no”, because at least there’s some percentage of error in people’s conversations. But it is not an impossible thing.

God wants you to be perfected in love (see 1 John 4:17), and He knows that’ll take some time. But you should be conscious of the journey. Yes, you’ll encounter problems with people, and some may be your own fault. But make it a personal ambition to prioritize growing and walking in love, and your mind will always be at peace.
