WHAT LOVE is:
‘Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.’ 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
‘And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.’ 1 Corinthians 13:13
‘Do everything in love.’ 1 Corinthians 16:14
‘Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.’ Ephesians 4:2
‘Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.’ 1 Peter 4:8
‘There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.We love because he first loved us.’ 1 John 4: 18-19
‘Hatred stirs up conflict, but love covers over all wrongs.’ Proverbs 10:12
