True love is explained very well in the Bible at 1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7. Although I read this at my daughters wedding about 10 years ago I am only beginning to now understand it's true meaning.


True Love Explained

LOVE IS PATIENT – We can wait for love by phone, in person or by letter.

LOVE IS KIND – Kind words are good but kind actions are so much better.

IT DOES NOT ENVY – You love without expecting a reward. You love and wait.

IT DOES NOT BOAST – Love should not be bragged about or mixed with hate

IT IS NOT PROUD – Pride destroys. We must be open, honest and true .   

 IT IS NOTRUDE - Be kind and wait, it's the best thing you can do.

IT IS NOT SELF-SEEKING – Expect nothing. Ask guidance from the Lord above.

 IT IS NOT EASILY ANGERED – Keep cool is the golden rule. God is Love.

 IT KEEPS NO RECORD OF WRONGS. – Forgive and forget is the thing to do.

LOVE DOES NOT DELIGHT IN EVIL BUT REJOICES WITH THE TRUTH – Just be honest and true .

 IT ALWAYS PROTECTS, - Protect your love, day and night.

ALWAYS TRUSTS – Don't worry that your loved one is doing wrong or right.

ALWAYS HOPES – With our Father in Heaven, hope for love will glow.

 ALWAYS PERSEVERES – Love will perservere and will always grow!


"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, AND IT KEEPS NO RECORD OF WRONGS.  LOVE
  DOES NOT DELIGHT IN EVIL BUT REJOICES WITH THE
  TRUTH.  IT ALWAYS PROTECTS, ALWAYS TRUSTS,
  ALWAYS HOPES, AND ALWAYS PERSEVERES."  
  (1 CORINTHIANS 13:4-7)

The word 'love' is one of the most mis-used words in the english language. May the Lord bless you John for speaking up for true love!

Love is also a selfless offering of all goodness
the true caretaker of our emotional universe
& spiritual bounty...
