1 Corinthians 13:6 reads, “Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.” Love does not delight in evil.

1 Corinthians 13:6 reads, “Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.” Love does not delight in evil. This verse means that love finds no pleasure in wrongdoing, injustice, or evil acts, but instead finds joy in truth, honesty, and righteousness. Which implies a focus on what is right, even when it is difficult. Love is about the well-being and truth of others rather than accepting the lies and dishonesty of others. It is finding joy in truth even when it is difficult. This seems to be such an important thought, idea, or understanding of life right now. Especially when it seems others are trying to impose untruths on us to benefit their own desires and wants. Propaganda is everywhere and just because someone says it is true, does not make it true. Right and wrong do not change. And when people try to make right and wrong fit their agenda anger, meanness, and evil emerge, there is no love involved. As people of God, we must continue the course God has placed upon us. Trusting Him—our Lord, not in those trying to lead us astray. For love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth, righteousness and goodness. It is something for us to remember. God Bless. Amen.
