In 1 Corinthians chapter 13:7 it reads, "beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things." All of these statements are refering to charity. It applies in marriages as well. One author explained the behaviors that should accompany this scripture. The behaviors include: not complaining or murmuring, being responsible and gladly accepting callings or other requests, seeing growth in adversity, having a desire to learn and progress, and finally being steadfast, knowing life is a test. Consider these behaviors and evaluate how you are doing.
