The Way of Love


   If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I am bankrupt without love.

Love never gives up
Love cares more for others than for self
Love doesn't want what it doesn't have
Love doesn't strut
Doesn't have a swelled head
Doesn't force itself on others
Isn't always me first 
Doesn't fly off the handle
Doesn't keep the score of the sins of others
Doesn't revel when others grovel
Love takes pleasure in the flowering of truth
Puts up with anything
Trust God always
Always looks for the best
Never looks back
Keeps going to the end

Love never dies.
I Corinthians 13 (the Message)

Look how much Paul knew about love and he didn't even have a girlfriend! We all need to take notes from this one! I love you so much it makes me sick!
