Opening
Last Sunday we talked about love that let’s go
We learned how we must respond to difficult, demanding, disappointing and destructive people
If we can love our family, we can love others, because it’s easier to love people from a distance, will you agree?
Today let us move along how the Bible and not some dictionaries or encyclopedias describe “Love”
says these…
It doesn’t matter which translation you use.
What truly matters is the presence of the Holy Spirit in us
Because the Holy Spirit will always guide us into all the truth says...
We must be like the Bereans when investigating and communicating the Word of God
Ok?.. let’s get back to our business for the day...
Divorce rate here in America is 41% for the 1st marriages, 60% on the 2nd marriages and 73 on 3rd marriages
Love at first sight is just “attraction and arousal”.. the love that truly counts is the the Outstanding & Everlasting one
You’ll never know if you’re truly in-love unless you’ve been together for at least a quarter of a century
How many of you been married for 5, 10, 25, 50, 75 years?
Boy, you are overcomers… you overcame the Deadly D’s

There’s no perfect relationship.
No perfect friendship.
2 Imperfect people cannot create a perfect relationship
No relationship can last without “grace”
Grace is forgiveness, mercy, patience, understanding, compassion...
Forgiveness is always a two-way street
We can never receive what we are unwilling to give
Treat other people the way how God has treated you
Accepting people is listening to them
God gave us two ears for a reason
Be gentle and humble with one another
Give the other person some “slack”, some “allowances”
Outstanding Love Never Stops Being Patient
The Greek word used here is “stegō” στέγω (pronounce-steho), meaning endure, bear, stand

Outstanding Love Never Stops Believing
The Greek word used here is “pisteuō” πιστεύω (pronounce-pisteho), meaning to believe
Here the psalmist is saying that despite being crushed, he keeps on believing on God
We must always give people the benefit of the doubt
Always giving people a second chance
Among the best gift that we could ever give to a person is “trust”
Outstanding Love Never Stops Hoping
The Greek word used here is “elpizō” ἐλπίζω (pronounce-elpizo), meaning to put one’s hope, expectation
Love always expects for what is best
Expect people to be better and they will (nagging doesn’t work)
Look at your spouse not for what she is, but for what she could be
Guys if you want your wives to treat you like a king, treat them like a queen

Stay put!
Don’t give up!

Marriage is not just to make you happy, it is also to make you “holy”
Grow up!
Rid off any remaining “ego or pride”
My Story with my “Last and Only”
Prayer
Lord Jesus.
You are the ultimate and exemplary example of “outstanding love”.
Your willingness to take up that rugged cross.
You patiently dragged it up to that mountain.
You did not stop believing in the Father.
And you never stop hoping for your people to repent.
You did not gave up on us.
So Lord, it is our prayer for the Holy Spirit to help us, to remain patient no matter what is our circumstances.
To never stop believing in You, in our spouses, in our children, in our brothers and sisters, in our friends and co-workers.
To always hope for what is the best, for You only have in store for us what is best.
And finally, we pray Lord that You help us to never give up.
These we ask our Father in heaven, through the Holy Spirit and in the name of our Saviour Jesus Christ.
