Just imagine how many marriages would be spared the heartbreak of separation and divorce if there were true love in the hearts of men and women. Think of what comfort and encouragement would brighten the lot of the poor, sick, lonely and sorrowing, if only there were more love in this world. Who can tell what new vitality would stir the Church, and draw others into the fellowship, if only there were real love among the professed followers of Christ? It is love we need-Christian love. Mariano DiGangi  \nThe Holy Spirit is inspiring Paul to write of a more excellent way,“And yet Ishow you a more excellent way.” 1 Corinthians 12:31  \nNot just a good way or a better way but a “hyperbolic” way. The word“excellent” is translated “Beyond measure” in Galatians 1:13 and “surpassing greatness” in 2 Corinthians 4:7 . Paul is telling us that he is going to show us not just a great way but a “beyond greatness” way , a way that is beyond measurement, a way for making an impact for Christ so great that it can’t be measured. Mack  \n“Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.” 1 Corinthians 13:7  \nPerfection \\#13 “Believes all things”  \nQuestion: Does this mean we are to be gullible and naïve?  \nScriptures:  \nProverbs 14:15  \nProverbs 22:3  \nProverbs 28:26  \nProverbs 12:15  \nQuestion: What does it mean to “believe all things?”  \nIf we are loving people, we will not allow suspicion, cynicism, or a judgmental, critical attitude to become a dominant feature in our relationships. We will put the best possible interpretation on what another person has done or said until we have the facts that prove to the contrary.  \nMost of us can slip into the sin of judgmentalism from time to time. But there are those among us who practice it continually. These people have a critical spirit. They look and find fault with everyone and everything. Whether it is a person, a church an event or anything-they end up speaking in a disparaging manner. Jerry Bridges  \nIn dealing with loved ones, love is not suspicious or cynical, but open and favorably disposed towards them. It seeks to understand each person in the best light with an understanding of life’s complexities. It believes people can change and improve. It sees their worth, potential and future possibilities. It studies motives and makes all possible allowances. Strauch “15 descriptions of Love”  \nBelieves (4100) (pisteuo ] from pistis = faith, trust, belief) in context implies that love sees the best in others or gives the other person the benefit of the doubt, choosing to believe the best about them not the worst!  \nAugustine said it well that this quality of love is “believing the best”  \nabout all people.  \nPaul is not saying that love is gullible and believes everything and does not exercise qualities such as wisdom and discernment. What he is saying is that love  \nwill believe well of others unless convinced otherwise. It seeks to put the best possible construction on another's words, actions, etc.  \nSpecific and practical ways that having a love that always trust and believes is lived out!  \nPerfection \\#14 “Love hopes all things”  \nHopes ( 1679) (elpizo from elpis = hope, conveying as the main element a sense of confidence) means to look forward with confidence to that which is good and beneficial. In the present context of interpersonal relationships, it means that the one who loves, looks at the bright side of things and does not despair (and certainly does not convey a sense of despair to the other person) . Love is not pessimistic but shows a godly optimism.
