Love is patient, love is kind, it isn’t jealous, it doesn’t brag, it isn’t arrogant, 5it isn’t rude, it doesn’t seek its own advantage, it isn’t irritable, it doesn’t keep a record of complaints, 6it isn’t happy with injustice, but it is happy with the truth. 7Love puts up with all things, trusts in all things, hopes for all things, endures all things. 1Corinthians 13:4-7 CEB
You have fallen short.
You have made mistakes.
You have been away for a long time.
Guess what I still love you.
You lied, cheated, and gossiped.
You put yourself first.
You have abandoned those in need.
No matter what, I still love you.
No matter far you have run away, I’ll find you
No matter how deep you have fallen, I will reach down and lift you up.
No matter how dark it gets, I will be the light that shines.
I do all of this because I still love you.
I loved you so that I gave up a part of myself.
I took on all of your sins and inequities.
I rose and went to build a place for you.
All because I still love you.
You are made in My image.
You are my work of art.
You are my child.
So no matter the circumstance my dear I still love you.
