Now you don't need anyone to write to you about brotherly love,

since you have been taught by God to love each other.”
1 Thessalonians 4:9


Love is doing what is in the best interests of others –
regardless of cost to self.

Love defined from Ephesians 5.

In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— for we are members of his body.​

Amen
1 Corinthians 13:
4 Love endures with patience and serenity, love is kind and thoughtful, and is not jealous or envious; love does not brag and is not proud or arrogant.

5 It is not rude; it is not self-seeking, it is not provoked [nor overly sensitive and easily angered]; it does not take into account a wrong endured.

6 It does not rejoice at injustice, but rejoices with the truth [when right and truth prevail].

7 Love bears all things [regardless of what comes], believes all things [looking for the best in each one], hopes all things [remaining steadfast during difficult times], endures all things [without weakening].

Summery:
Love; patiently endues, is always kind, truthful & forgiving.

Love is never jealous, envious, boastful, proud, arrogant, rude selfish, provoked, vindictive.

Thank you for what you said. It just happens that the quote I used today is from my own pastor, who has faithfully - and diligently - been serving the same congregation for 25 years.
