Love is patient

Love is Patient

This is a verse I have quoted many times in my life, but these days I am finding a brand new meaning to it all. Love is patient... loving my little girl so much that all I have is to be patient until she comes. For those of you who have children I know you can relate, were at the end oly 2 more weeks to her due date. Which would be fine IF I had any hope to think she would actually be here by then! Kaylee is already the love of my life and ALL Kenny and I can talk about, what will she look like? Who's personality will she have? Will she be a good sleeper? Eater? Who will she become? She already consumes us and she is not even here yet.. which is why I am learning. LOVE is PATIENT. We love Kaylee more than we ever thought we could and yet we have to be PATIENT to meet her and watch who she will become. I guess God had many meanings when writing this verse, but today this is what it means to me.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

1cornithians 13:4
