The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.

Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.

May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.

We love because He first loved us.

When I said, “My foot is slipping,” your unfailing love, Lord, supported me.

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.

You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather, serve one another humbly in love.

For Christ’s love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.

But you, man of God, flee from all this, and pursue righteousness, godliness, faith, love, endurance and gentleness.
