At the start of 1 Corinthians 13:7, the Bible says, “Love bears all things.” The word bears in this context means to “protect” or “cover over in secret.”
Is the love you’ve shown toward others a protective love, continually washing away wrongs for a fresh start each day? Or does it murmur and complain, revealing to anyone who will listen all the faults of another?
As Proverbs 10:12 says, love “covers all sins.” It’s what Christ did for us and an example to the mercy and forgiveness we all need.
Billy Graham often talked about forgiving others and how pride can prevent us from doing so. Let these help you get on the right track to making amends.
