St. Paul’s Attributes of Love
Perhaps the most famous essay on what love is – and what love is not – comes from the 13th Chapter of St. Paul’s First Letter to the Corinthians in the New Testament of the Bible.
This chapter is read at weddings and anniversaries.
The words are emblazoned on inspirational plaques and wall décor.
This series will focus on a selected part of that chapter, verses 4-8 and verse 13, the last verse in Chapter 13.
There are two “Love is …” attributes, five “Love is not …” attributes, three “Love does not…” sentences and four “Love does …” attributes (bears, believes, hopes, endures), and the finality verse, “Love Does Not Fail.”
The following posts contain a Word Art heart and a reflection on each of the attributes of Love.

Love Does Not Seek Its Own Interests
Love Does Not Brood Over Injury
Love Does Not Rejoice over Wrong Doing, But Rejoices with the Truth
May you always experience the fullness of God’s love for you, your family and friends.
