Bible verses about
Love
“God is love” (1 John 4:8 and 16). Without God, love — that most blessed of all emotions — would not exist. Praise Him for His love toward us, His flawed but favored children.
Jesus Christ, our blessed Savior, is the living embodiment of God’s love. Praise God, nothing — nothing — is capable of separating us from the wealth of divine love which is in Jesus (Romans 8:39).
Love has no limits
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
Love is patient and is kind. Love doesn’t envy. Love doesn’t brag, is not proud, doesn’t behave itself inappropriately, doesn’t seek its own way, is not provoked, takes no account of evil; doesn’t rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, and endures all things.
