Love is sacred -
it is a gift from one to another, and should be treated as such.
It is unconditional, is not jealous, is totally trusting, and can withstand
the most difficult of circumstance (hence the marriage vows "for better
or worse"). Love is the greatest gift ~ to be treasured.
Whether you believe
in God or the Bible is irrelevant....these words remain true always in
describing what love is.
"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."
~ 1 Corinthians
13:4-8 ~
(NIV)
"And now these three
remain:
faith, hope and
love.
But the greatest
of these is love."
~v.13
