Bible Verses All About Love

Lately, I have been thinking about what true love really looks like. Not the kind the world talks about, but the kind God calls us to live out every single day. Patient love. Forgiving love. Steady love. The kind of love that reflects Jesus in how we treat our spouse, our kids, our friends, and even the people who test our patience.

I put together a list of powerful Bible verses about love that you can read, reflect on, and even share. If you need a reminder of what real love looks like, start here.
