1 Corinthians 13: Entire Verse


This post is part of the Woman in Faith Series. 


For those of you who have been following my blog from the beginning, you know I have blogged about many things including Cavalier King Charles Spaniels, our new house, pregnancy, and many other things.  For a wedding this fall I was asked to do a reading.  1 Corinthians 13 was the reading.  Since i think this is such a good part of the bible, throughout the rest of the year I am going to show you resources that I have found on the subject.  


13 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, 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. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part,10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.




Love is:

  • Patient
  • Kind
  • Rejoices in truth
  • Bears up under all problems / Protects
  • Believes / Trusts
  • Hopes
  • Understands the of faults of others
  • Never fails / Perseveres

Love isn’t:

  • Envious
  • Proud
  • Boastful
  • Inappropriate / Rude
  • Selfish
  • Short-tempered
  • Evil
  • Accepting of sin
