I Corinthians 13:6 Love does not delight in
evil but rejoices with the truth.
This is
a verse out of the “love chapter” of the bible – which is full of definitions
of what love is. It starts with what
love does NOT do, and then says was love DOES do.
Delighting
in evil seems like something only bad people do – those who want to
destroy others and are evil themselves. However,
when we choose to believe the lies from the evil one, we’re heading in that
direction…towards delighting in evil.
But,
wait! There’s hope. When we receive God’s love for us we begin to
rejoice in the truth. We begin to see
how much he cares for us and how much he loves us, and it makes us want to jump
up and down with joy.
In what
are you taking delight? The whispers in
your ear that depress you and send you reeling…or…the God of the universe
exclaiming over you, “I love you!”
Rejoice
in the truth.
