"Love endures long and is patient and kind;
Love never is envious nor boils over with jealousy; is not boastful or vainglorious, does not display itself haughtilly. It is not conceited-arrogant and inflated with pride; it is not rude (unmannerly), and does not act unbecommingly.
Love (God's love in us) does not insist on its own rights or its own way, for it is not self-seeking; it is not touchy or fretful or resentful; it takes no account of the evil done to it-pays no attention to suffered wrong. It does not rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness, but rejoices when right and truth prevail.
Love bears up under anything and everything that comes, is ever ready to believe the best of every person, its hopes are fadeless under all circumstances and it endures everything (without weakening).
Love never failes - never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end."
I Corinthians 13:4-8 - Amplified Version
These are powerful scriptures. The act of true love, God's kind, may sound like a tough set of requirements, but each of us can meet everyone. God has sent His love Spirit to live in each of us and to teach us how to love as He loves. We can live the life of the Godly love.
Yes, we can live a life of loving successfully because we have the Spirit of Love which abides in each of us who have accepted Jesus as our Lord and Savior.
