Everything you do should be done in love.

Colossians 3:14
And to all these virtues add love, which is the perfect bond.

1 Corinthians 13 1-1 Corinthians 13 8
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but I do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.And if I have prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so that I can remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.If I give away everything I own, and if I give over my body in order to boast, but do not have love, I receive no benefit.Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up.It is not rude, it is not self- serving, it is not easily angered or resentful.It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth.It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will be set aside; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be set aside.

1 John 4 7-1 John 4 18
Dear friends, let us love one another, because love is from God, and everyone who loves has been fathered by God and knows God.The person who does not love does not know God, because God is love.By this the love of God is revealed in us: that God has sent his one and only Son into the world so that we may live through him.In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins.Dear friends, if God so loved us, then we also ought to love one another.No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God resides in us, and his love is perfected in us.By this we know that we reside in God and he in us: in that he has given us of his Spirit.And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son to be the Savior of the world.If anyone confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God resides in him and he in God.And we have come to know and to believe the love that God has in us. God is love, and the one who resides in love resides in God, and God resides in him.By this love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment, because just as Jesus is, so also are we in this world.There is no fear in love, but perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears punishment has not been perfected in love.

But this I call to mind; therefore I have hope:ח( Khet)The LORD’s loyal kindness never ceases; his compassions never end.They are fresh every morning; your faithfulness is abundant!“ My portion is the Lord,” I have said to myself, so I will put my hope in him.ט( Tet)The LORD is good to those who trust in him, to the one who seeks him.It is good to wait patiently for deliverance from the LORD.

Galatians 5:13-22
For you were called to freedom, brothers and sisters; only do not use your freedom as an opportunity to indulge your flesh, but through love serve one another.For the whole law can be summed up in a single commandment, namely,“ You must love your neighbor as yourself.”However, if you continually bite and devour one another, beware that you are not consumed by one another.But I say, live by the Spirit and you will not carry out the desires of the flesh.For the flesh has desires that are opposed to the Spirit, and the Spirit has desires that are opposed to the flesh, for these are in opposition to each other, so that you cannot do what you want.But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law.Now the works of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity, depravity,idolatry, sorcery, hostilities, strife, jealousy, outbursts of anger, selfish rivalries, dissensions, factions,envying, murder, drunkenness, carousing, and similar things. I am warning you, as I had warned you before: Those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God!But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

1 John 5 1-1 John 5 5
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been fathered by God, and everyone who loves the father loves the child fathered by him.By this we know that we love the children of God: whenever we love God and obey his commandments.For this is the love of God: that we keep his commandments. And his commandments do not weigh us down,because everyone who has been fathered by God conquers the world. This is the conquering power that has conquered the world: our faith.Now who is the person who has conquered the world except the one who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

Luke 8:13-15
Those on the rock are the ones who receive the word with joy when they hear it, but they have no root. They believe for a while, but in a time of testing fall away.As for the seed that fell among thorns, these are the ones who hear, but as they go on their way they are choked by the worries and riches and pleasures of life, and their fruit does not mature.But as for the seed that landed on good soil, these are the ones who, after hearing the word, cling to it with an honest and good heart, and bear fruit with steadfast endurance.

Hebrews 10:39-11:7
But we are not among those who shrink back and thus perish, but are among those who have faith and preserve their souls.Now faith is being sure of what we hope for, being convinced of what we do not see.For by it the people of old received God’s commendation.By faith we understand that the worlds were set in order at God’s command, so that the visible has its origin in the invisible.By faith Abel offered God a greater sacrifice than Cain, and through his faith he was commended as righteous, because God commended him for his offerings. And through his faith he still speaks, though he is dead.By faith Enoch was taken up so that he did not see death, and he was not to be found because God took him up. For before his removal he had been commended as having pleased God.Now without faith it is impossible to please him, for the one who approaches God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who seek him.By faith Noah, when he was warned about things not yet seen, with reverent regard constructed an ark for the deliverance of his family. Through faith he condemned the world and became an heir of the righteousness that comes by faith.
