The Way of Love (1 Corinthians 13:1-9, 13)

If I speak with human eloquence and the voice of

angels but dont love, Im nothing but the creaking
of a rusty gate. If I speak Gods Word with power,
revealing all his mysteries and making everything
plain as day, and if I have faith that says to a
mountain, Jump, and it jumps, but I dont love,
Im nothing. If I give everything I own to the poor
and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr,
but I dont love, Ive gotten nowhere. So, no
matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do,
Im bankrupt without love.
