God is love.
God Is the origin of all that we know about love. Love is of God. God embodies all that love is, for love is part of his nature.
His love is sacrficial.
He sent his son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.
God's love is unconditional.
No one deserves God's love but he loves everyone.
Since God loved us, we should love one another.
We must love one another before we can love God.
Love is the greatest gift God offers His children.
Out of all the fruits of the Holy Spirit, love is the
first.
Read: 1 John 4:7-21
Read: Galatians 5:22-23
Read: John 13:34-35
LOVE
Love is patient, love is kind.
It does not envy, it does not boast,
It is not proud.
It is not rude, 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 trusts,
Always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
May Christ dwell in your hearts through faith, and may charity be the root and foundation of your life.
Thus you will be able to grasp fully, the breadth and length, and height and depth of Christ's love, and experience this love which surpasses all knowledge, so that you may attain to the fullness of God himself.
Ephesians 3:17-19
Love the lord with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself.
Matthew 22:37-39
