In 1 Cor. xiii. we have God's description of love's characteristics. In the life of Jesus upon earth we have the exemplification of love. Let us take them together. 1. Love " suffereth long." To Peter Jesus says, " I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not." 2. Love " is kind." " When He saw the multitude He was moved with compas- sion for them." 3. Love " envieth not." " The glory which Thou gavest me I have given them, that they may be one, even as We are One." 4. Love " vaunteth not itself." " He made Himself of no reputation." 6. Love " is not puffed up." " I am among you as one that serveth." • 6. Love " doth not behave itself unseemly." " All wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of His mouth." 7. Love " seeketh not her own." " I seek not Mine own will, but the will of the Father which hath sent Me." 8. Love " is not easily provoked." " Jesus answered nothing, so that Pilate marvelled." 9. Love " thinketh no, evil." Jesus said, ' Neither do I condemn thee: go and sin no more." 10. Love " rejoiceth not in iniquity." " He sighed deeply in His spirit." 11. Love " rejoiceth in the Troth." " I thank Thee, O Father, because Thou hast revealed these things to babes." 12. Love " beareth all things." " For their Bakes I sanctify Myself." 13. Love " believeth all things." Jesus said, " Judge not according to the appearance." 14. Love " hopeth all things." " He that is not against us is for us." 15. Love '' endureth all things." " Such contradiction of sinners against Himself." 16. Love " never faileth." " Having loved His own, He loved them unto the end." May we know this God of Love more personally and intimately, through this loving Saviour, and be made more like Him in 1889 .
