Heart Love

as we celebrate Valentine's Day, I felt it would be appropriate to post that wonderful section from Scripture on LOVE

Quote:
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 cymbal.

If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.

If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not 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 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.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned 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

Thank you. Love is a driving force in our lives. It drives us to do what we never dreamed we could.

Yep, a day to celebrate love is great!

Thumbs up

Yeah, go ahead and preach to us, girl. Looking at that photo of you with your little ones tells me you know a thing or two about love.

It's my favorite scripture - right up there with Psalm 23.

Happy Valentine's Day ((everyone))

Default What a perfect quote for the day!

I totally agree that love is by far the greatest emotion of all. If only there were more of it! But isn't it great to know that we're all loved all the time, whether we deserve it or not?

Thank you very much, Chemar!

Chemar,

Thank you so much for putting in this message. As you can tell by my signature, this one of my favorite verses of the Bible.

Receiving and giving love is a great gift to all.


Darlene
