Love That Always Does What Is Right

Written By Lettie Henley

"It does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth." — 1 Corinthians 13:6

Let’s talk about the nature of love; the kind of love that truly reflects Christ’s character. 1 Corinthians 13:6 reveals that real love is rooted in truth. It doesn’t celebrate or delight in evil or wrong but finds joy in what is true, pure, and righteous.

Love isn’t passive. It actively seeks what aligns with God's moral and divine standards. It rejoices when justice is done, when truth is revealed, and when righteousness prevails. When we speak and act with love that delights in truth, we participate in God’s justice and His creation of a world that reflects His goodness.

This love isn’t just about feelings; it’s a divine action, making choices that honor God’s truth. Love that truly reflects Christ will never rejoice in injustice, deceit, or unrighteousness. Instead, it celebrates integrity, honesty, and the victory of righteousness.

Ask yourself: “Am I rejoicing with the truth?” Are my words and actions aligned with God’s standards of righteousness? Choose to love in a way that delights in truth, and your life will be a testimony of His goodness.

When you hear or see injustice today, pray for God’s truth to shine. Speak words of encouragement that uplift truth and righteousness. Make honesty and integrity your daily hallmarks, rejoicing in God's unchanging standards.

Love rooted in truth is powerful, it reflects Christ’s righteousness and invites others into His kingdom. Let your love rejoice with the truth today and every day, shining His light into a world that longs for real compassion and integrity.

Prayer:

Father, I thank You for the love that delights in truth. Help me to love as You love, in righteousness, honesty, and integrity. Fill my words and actions with Your truth, so I may reflect Your glory and bring light into darkness. Teach me to rejoice always in what is good and right in Your sight. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
