Happy Valentine’s Day from our family to yours!
I Corinthians 13
1If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.2If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge ; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.3And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.4Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous ; love does not brag and is not arrogant,5does not act unbecomingly ; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take intoaccount a wrong suffered,6does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth ;7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.8Love never fails ; but if there are gifts of prophecy, they will be done away ; if there are tongues, they will cease ; if there is knowledge, it will be done away.9For we know in part and we prophesy in part ;10but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away.11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child ; when I became a man, I did away with childish things.12For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face ; now I know in part, but then I will knowfully just as I also have been fully known.13But now faith, hope, love, abide these three ; but the greatest of these is love.
