Love is patient Love is kind it does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud, it does not dishonor others, 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 and now these three remain; faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8,13
