1 Corinthians 13:4-8

~ Love suffers. Without stopping.

~ Love always shows kindness.

~ Love does not envy or show jealousy - it desires the other person to have what is best.  It shows no 
    selfishness.

~ Love does not allow you to highly esteem yourself.  It makes you consider yourself to be a servant, 
   less than... It does not allow you to be upset when you are forgotten or overlooked or mistreated.

~ Love is well behaved,

~  Love does not allow you to do what pleases yourself.

~   Love is not easily offended - it is not easily upset; it is willing to bear and to forgive offences.

~ Love desires to believe the best about another.

~ Love is willing to carry the painful consequences of another's failure.

~ Love always believes - always hopes - never gives up on another.

~ Love is strong enough to endure anything - any injury. any trial. any mistreatment. 

~ (True) love - the love that is of God and is self-sacrificing - never fails.  It endures forever.  It never 
    fades.  Never falters.
