Always remember this fact about love: love does the hard things. Love tells the truth even when there are consequences that the person on the loving end will have to face even though they did not create them. Love tells the truth at its own expense. Love tells the truth when it knows it may offend, even though it’s presented in a gentle and respectful manner. Speaking truth is hard to begin with, especially now-a-days. Overcoming the fear of offending isn’t easy, but we often forget “Love conquers all fear”. Love does the hard things. Don’t pray for less fear, instead, pray for more love.
4 I wrote that letter in great anguish, with a troubled heart and many tears. I didn’t want to grieve you, but I wanted to let you know how much love I have for you.
