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 trust, always hopes, always perseveres. Love 
never fails. - 1 Corinthian 13:4-8
