What is Love?
Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. Love doesn’t want what it doesn’t have. Love doesn’t strut, Doesn’t have a swelled head, Doesn’t force itself on others, Isn’t always “me first,” Doesn’t fly off the handle, Doesn’t keep score of the sins of others, Doesn’t revel when others grovel, Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth, Puts up with anything, Trusts God always, Always looks for the best, Never looks back, But keeps going to the end. (I Corinthians 13:4-7 The Message)
Hmm....
Simply Said
yet not so
Simply to Do.
But thanks to God
for
His Ultimate Gift of Love
Who Is
Love~

If

I’m bankrupt without love. I Corinthians 13:3
