I'da thought somebody would've posted this by now!!!!
Quote:
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not LOVE, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.(SUCCESS)
And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not LOVE, I am nothing.(WEALTH)
If I give away all I have, and if I deliver my body to be burned, but have not LOVE, I gain nothing.(POWER)
Love is patient and kind; love is not jealous or boastful; it is not arrogant or rude. Love does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong, but rejoices in the right.
Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends; as for prophecies, they will fail; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.
For our knowledge is imperfect and our prophecy is imperfect; but when the perfect comes, the imperfect will pass away.
When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child; when I became a man (woman), I gave up childish ways.
For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall understand fully, even as I have been fully understood.
So FAITH, HOPE AND LOVE abide, these three...
But the greatest of these is LOVE...
