1 COR. 13:1-13
4 Love is patient; love is kind. Love does not envy; is not boastful; is not conceited;
5 does not act improperly; is not selfish; is not provoked; does not keep a record of wrongs;
6 finds no joy in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never ends....
Christian love (agape) is to be the guiding principle for all we do. Jesus said that love for God and love for our neighbors were the most important commands of scripture (Matt. 22:37-40). When you read the above passage, you might want to mentally insert the definition "concern for others that leads to sacrificial action".
