Please rise and turn to… 1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends…

It seems to me this is a pretty good description of love.  A commitment rather than a wobbly feeling or a nice idea.  Unconditional. Unwavering. Based on its own merits not on the expectation of others. Something you give without the anticipation of it being returned. A choice and a decision. 

Love is not a word I use lightly, and never have.  If I have ever told you I love you then, that love never ends…

Thank you, you may be seated…
