Sylvia A. Jenkins

Love is patient, love is kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; It is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrong doing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believe all things, hopes all things, endure all things. Love never ends. As prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.

I Corinthians 13:4-8
