That's why first Corinthians 13 isn't a to do list. It's a portrait. It's a portrait of the only person in history who has lived this out perfectly. I mean, think about this for a moment. Take this passage that you've read as love is patient, love is kind, and put Jesus' name in here. Jesus is patient and kind. Jesus does not envy or boast. He is not arrogant or rude. He does not insist on his own way. He is not irritable or resentful. That is actually a portrait of Jesus.
