Have enough courage to trust love one more time and always one more time.
From 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a: “Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable; it keeps no record of wrongs; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends.”
Maya Angelou (1928-2014) was an American author, poet, and civil rights activist. Her body of published work is found in autobiographies, essays, poems, and numerous credits in plays, movies, and television shows.
Good to meet another Maya Angelou reader! Have you read books by Toni Morrison too?

Thank you for reading and sharing. This Angelou quote came from a devotional that I sometimes read. I’ve only read a bit from Toni Morrison.

I’m curious. What kind of devotional and from who?

I go back and forth between more than one devotional. I cannot really remember which one included this quote from Maya Angelou. Some of my favorite devotionals include Scripture, testament, and quote. Thanks so much for asking.

In my posts, nearly all Scripture verses come from the New Revised Standard Version.
