1 John 4:7-13 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God. He who does not love does not know God for God is Love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us because He has given us His Spirit.
1 Corinthians 13:1 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels but have not love, I have become as sounding brass or a clanging cymbal.
1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love suffers long and is kind; Love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely; does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil, does not rejoice in iniquity but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things; endures all things. Love never fails, God is love, God never fails.
Thank You Jesus for Your perfect example. You loved us enough to die for Your people that through Your life, death, and resurrection to be our King and Savior that we may have life eternal with You! You Jesus are our High Priest forever. Lead us in Your way day by day, hour by hour, moment by moment. In You we move and have our being. Lord forgive us our trespasses and lead us on your path of righteousness. Help us all to be doers of Your word in thought and deed. In You Jesus is peace beyond understanding, love unconditional, mercy that is new every morning. Blessed be the Lord our God who daily loads us with benefits.
In Jesus name amen
