In Celebration of Love



I decided since this month celebrates love, I would share a few of my favorite quotes about love, as well as some bible verses regarding love. You don't have to be in love to appreciate love. God gives us his love and the love he gives is eternal. Why not celebrate today? Why not tell someone you love them or do a good deed to show someone else the love of Christ. We are called to show that love always not just on Valentine's day. So celebrate because we have a love that can sustain us forever.

"Many waters cannot quench love, neither can the floods drown it..."
(Song of Solomon 8:7)

"Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another."
(1 John 4 :11)

"In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him"
(1 John 4:9)


"Time is to slow for those who wait,
Too swift for those who fear,
Too long for those who grieve,
Too short for those who rejoice,
But for those who love,
time is eternity.
(Henry Van Dyke)


"You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love."
(Henry Drummond)


"At the touch of love everyone becomes a poet."
(Plato)
