I just wanted to share this passage on what the Bible has to say on love. Because nowadays the word love is so often missused.

 

 

                                                          1 corinthians 13

 

     If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging symbal. If I have a gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor abd surrender my body to the flames, but have no love, I gain nothing.

    Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easely 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. For we know part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect dissapears.  When I was a child, I talked like a child.  When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

    And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love.  But the greatest of these is love.

One of my favorite verses in the Bible!

^_^

Love is the reason and foundation of everything, I believe.

God is love. And in this world eaten up by selfishness, lust, strife and misery, true love can seldom be found but those that remain are light that makes life still worth it after all.
