If I speak with the tongues of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging symbol. 

     And if I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.

     And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing.

     Love is patient, love is kind, and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,

     does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,

     does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices in the truth;

     bears all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

      Love never fails....

            I Corinthians, Chapter 13
