LOVE


Three things will remain forever:

Faith, Hope, and Love.

But, the greatest of these is LOVE.

Love does not envy.
Love does not brag.

Love is not arrogant.
Love is not rude.
Love is not self-seeking.
Love is not easily angered.
Love is not unfaithful.

Love does not keep a record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil.

Instead,

Love is patient.
Love is kind.
Love is good.
Love is caring.
Love is giving.
Love is faithful.
Love is peaceful.
Love is joyful.

And

Love always rejoices with the truth.
Love always protects.
Love always trusts in God.
Love always hopes.
Love always perseveres.

Love never fails.
