This verse is my deal breaker. This is the one that helps me decide things. It helped me get out of a very bad place and into good ones. I came across this interpretation and I really like it. It is a bit different than what I usually hear so it keeps it fresh and I can look at it differently. Verses 4-7 are what SR is to me, this was a big help in making my decision. I know I have done things wrong in my life, many without knowing, but perhaps there were some right ones. Verses 9-10 help me get over not knowing all the answers now and it definitely helps me keep a deaf ear on those who say they do or act like they do. This helps me not waste my time with those kinds of attitudes and those controlled by them, so I can do the work I was meant to do and enjoy, rekindle, repair and work out my relationships with God, family and friends on my own like it was meant to be. I am beginning to believe SR was sent to help me see this. I hope I can do this for her in some manner as well.
1 Corinthians Chapter 13:4-10 NAB
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, (love) is not pompous, it is not inflated,
5 it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury,
6 it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth.7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing.
9 For we know partially and we prophesy partially,
10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.
10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away.
