Publisher’s Page February 2014 1 Corinthians 13:4–8a Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. (NIV) Valentines Day will soon be here!! This is a time of year when we are reminded of the blessings of everyone that we love. It has occurred to me that the first biblical truth that I learned as a child is that God is Love. In this definition of love from the Bible it is easy to replace God where love should be. Sometimes the most important lessons from life are the most simple. Have a wonderful Valentine’s Day.
