By His power and grace we will avoid all activities that disgrace Him, while participating in the many that glorify Him. If we give gifts, let it be out of sincerity and kindness, instead of vanity and pride. All sharing must be done in the grace of God, lavishly and freely. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
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.
