The Ultimate Love Story

Love never fails
So says the ultimate authority
Why then, does love
seem to fail,
time and time again?
Love is patient
We are not
Love is kind
Are we?
I could go on
but you may
read it for yourself
1 Corinthians 13
It's on your shelf

This is why love fails
Love fails because
this world's love
is not true love
This world's love
is actually lust

Love fails because
We are selfish
we should be selfless
Jesus was.

Jesus is.
Jesus is love
I love Jesus
Who do you love?
Why do you love?
Do you love so
you will be loved?
or do you love
so others will feel loved?

Jesus loved
But he was unloved
Jesus loved
Jesus was crucified
because of me
because of you
but Jesus didn't stay dead
Jesus conquered death
He did it all
because he loves us
What will you do
to show your love?
