The gift of Love
DATE: 02/06/2010 00:00:00 / MOOD: in love
If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels, wowgoldbut do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away all my possessions, wowgoldand if I hand over my body so that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing. wowgold Love is patient; wowgoldlove is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant or rude. weddingdresses It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; wowgold it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. But as for prophecies, wowgold they will come to an end; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, nikeshoes it will come to an end. For we know only in part, and we prophesy only in part; but when the complete comes, the partial will come to an end. When I was a child, I thought like a child; when I became and adult, I put an end to childish ways. For now we see in mirror, nikeshoes dimly, but then we will see face to face. weddingdresses Now I know only in part; then I will know fully, nikeshoes even as I have been fully known. And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love.
