Scripture

“Love is patient and kind.
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
It does not demand its own way.
It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged.
It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.”

1 Corinthians 13:4-7

“Three things will last forever
—faith, hope and love—
and the greatest of these is love.”

1 Corinthians 13:13

    As you talk about people, write their names in the blank spaces.

    Put the note in a Christmas card, and mail it or drop it off on their porch with a small gift. It might be late in the season, but it’s never too late for people to hear that God loves them!
