What Love Is and Is Not...

If I can speak Mandarin, French, Spanish, Thai, Lao, Tamil, Gaelic, Greek, Latin, Turkish and Russian, but I don't have love... 
I AM NOTHING
If I have 3 university degrees, 2 doctorates; if I can see into the future, speak to the dead, can read the stars and the seasons; if I can command the Himalayas to move to Jamaica, but I don't have love...
I AM NOTHING
If I donate all my clothes, shoes, books, jewellery, CDs, DVDs, toiletries and everything I own to charity and then even give up my body for medical research, but I don't have love...
I GAIN NOTHING

LOVE:

is patient
is kind
is not envious
doesn't boast
is not arrogant
is not rude
doesn't insist on it's own way
is not irritable 
is not resentful
doesn't rejoice in wrong
does rejoice with truth

LOVE:

bears all things
believes all things
hopes all things
endures all thing

LOVE NEVER ENDS

All those things:

Now we can only half see. Later we will fully see
Faith, Hope and Love live together
But the greatest is LOVE
Love must have a price. Love is not self-convenience. The price of love may cause you to suffer.
If I am the best preacher, evangelist, prophet, healer, worshipper or missionary, but I don't have love... I may as well just stay home!

God, I come to you as a student of love. I don't know how to love selflessly. Teach me your ways of love...
