2 anglican journal • February 2014 reflection ON 1 CORINTHIANS 13 An amazing transformation

By Melanie Delva

hen I first arrived at the doorstep of Anglicanism—damaged, dusty and be- Wdraggled from my journey as a runaway from a fundamentalist upbringing—I couldn’t really use the word “God.” Like many others who grow up in the suffocation of fundamentalism, the word conjured images of an anthropomorphized being whose mood ranged anywhere from teenage-y angst to one bent on creating suffering for the sake of suffering. My Anglican spiritual mentor at the time asked me what it would be like to replace the word “God” with the word “Love,” as “God is love” (1 John 4:8). The practice changed my church and spiritual experience for the better, almost immediately. Passages and liturgical references that used to send me into what I call “fundy fear mode” began to soften. They felt safer to my wounded soul. In the end, replacing “God” with “Love” allowed me to integrate them as one, so that I actually ended up preferring the word “God” because it was a more specific, intentional manifestation of “Love.” How does this relate to 1 Corinthians 13? Well, I confess I am one of the people who glazes over whenever this passage is read—be it at a wedding or regular service. I vacillate between reacting with an eye-roll to what I consider to be its overuse, to plung- ing myself into a sea of guilt at my lack of ability to live up to what feels like a laundry list of seemingly unattainable attributes. See, I feel pretty competent margaret m. stewart in my ability to embody maybe two or three at a time, but at my count, there are 15 characteristics of love in the passage. Now, I’ve never been very skilled at math, but I know that 3/15 is not a passing grade! So, I have ended up doing the exact opposite of what my I also grieve the times when others close to me have not embodied these characteristics—people spiritual mentor suggested I do many years ago. I have broken (as I am), hurting me and disappointing me begun substituting ‘God’ for ‘Love’ in this passage. (as I have others), because they are equally human in their attempts to love themselves and those around “ them. So, I have ended up doing the exact opposite of around me and (gasp!) even within myself. The pas- what my spiritual mentor suggested I do many years sage is no longer a depressingly elusive list of what ago. I have begun substituting “God” for “Love” in I should be, but what God already is. It has become this passage. “God is patient, God is kind…God keeps an inspiration to seek the face of Christ in others and no record of wrongs…God does not delight in evil… allow Christ to be found in me. Thanks be to God! God never fails.” An amazing transformation has hap- pened. In realizing that these are all characteristics of MELANIE DELVA is the archivist for the diocese of New who God is, I am able to find the imago Dei wherever Westminster and the provincial archivist of the ecclesiastical I see any of these characteristics—within those province of B.C. and the Yukon.
