Verses 4-8a gives us the eternal description of love. Seven traits of what it is and eight of what it is not. Lastly, in verses 8-12 we have the destiny of love. It will outlast everything. Love is the greatest thing.
Love is the supreme motivation.
We were made by love and for love. Life is death without it. It is love, God's love that has given us value. It is this same love that will reestablish self-worth or value when it has been lost, shattered or defiled. You have great value and purpose because God has placed all His love on you.
