Love Does Not Boast

Aren't boasters the worst people to be around? Arrogant braggards are a drag and a bore. That's why love does not boast. Love has humility. Love would ask, "What is there to brag about, but you?" Because their eyes are on the other. Love is good to be around. Love hardly even notices they did any good, any less than they notice others did not do so good (I Corinthians 13:5). Boasters are all about them and what they've done. Love is all about the other ~ and what can be done for the other.

Who do you like being around? Or should I say, who do you love being around?

I Corinthians 13:4
