In celebration of Valentine’s Day, I thought I’d share a poem I wrote that was inspired by 1 Corinthians 13 in the Bible. (If you’ve never read it before, you can read it here. It’s an entire chapter dedicated to love.) Whether you’re single or in a relationship (as love can be romantic or non-romantic), I hope that you all have the opportunity to celebrate the goodness of loving others not just on February 14, but every day of the year!
May your hearts always be overflowing with love. 🙂
Love Is…
Love is patient,
Love is kind,
Dwelling on the
Good in mind.
Does not envy,
Has no pride,
Honor you and
What’s inside.
Slow to anger
With clean slate,
Hold to good and
Never hate.
Bound in truth and
Trust in Him.
Light that shines will
Never dim.
Love protects us
And we trust
We’ll always hope
To stay just
Happy, joyful,
Faithful, free.
We call it love.
You…and me.
