What does this waiting involve? It means that I wait without demanding change. I wait without anxiety. I wait without anger. Not easy to do in your own strength. So, being patient then, is more than simply an attitude or an action. It’s action with an attitude.

Our love must be sincere. It must be genuine, real. Our deepest need is to receive real love, not token love. That’s why God put us together in His body. That’s why we need each other. The world will not love this way. The world only loves to get something in return. But God’s love is not like that. God loves with no strings attached. He loves us when we are not lovable. He loves us when we are rebellious. He loves us when we are at our worst. And that takes real love. So God’s Word tells us to not fake love – but to take off our masks and be real with one another. For when we give real love, that’s when others will see Jesus in us.
