Love....Never fails

Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned , and have notcharity, it profiteth me nothing. Charity suffereth long , and is kind ;charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself , is not puffed up , Does not behave itself unseemly , seeks not her own, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil; Rejoices not in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; Beares all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Charity never fails : but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail ; whether there be tongues, they shall cease ; whether there be knowledge, it shall vanish away . For we know in part, and we prophesy in part. But when that which is perfect is come , then that which is in part shall be done away . When I was a child, I spake as achild, I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. For now we see through a glass,darkly ; but then face to face: now I know in part; but then shall I know even as also I am known . And now abideth faith, hope, charity,these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
1Corinthians 13
