Question: Who thinks love is the greatest thing on earth!? and type a few words to describe it!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
1 Corinthians 13 (New International Version)
1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal!.

2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing!.

3 If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing!.

4 Love is patient, love is kind!. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud!.

5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs!.

6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth!.

7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres!.

8 Love never fails!. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away!.

9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part,

10 but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears!.

11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child!. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me!.

12 Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face!. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known!.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love!. But the greatest of these is love!.


Henry Drummond talks about love and our relationship with God in his book "The Greatest thing in the World", I think it is a good read and here is a link where it is available for free online!.

I think so!. Love is a great, sustained and genuine feeling and commitment for another person, persons, a pet, a hobby or any preoccupation that you have a passion for!.

However, let not allow it to consume oneself, for every minute or hour of the day, at the expense of everything in life!. There are other things as precious and important, such as sincerity, helpfulness, kindness, respect, diligence, responsibility, knowledge, essential skills, some monetary savings or material possessions, and compassion!. All these, including Love, ultimately determine the well-being or happiness of a person, making his Life more wholesome and meaningful!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
