A Love Letter From Corinthians

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 preserves.

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.


I Corinthians 13 : 1 – 13 NIV


Have you ever found a love that never fails?
Have you ever found an everlasting love? Have you ever found an unconditional love?

God provides it to you. God loves you more than your boyfriend or girlfriend. God loves you more than your mother or your father, or your family.

Find God’s truly love. You will never regret.
Happy Valentine’s Day Readers! :)
