Today's 1st reading comes from St. Paul's letter to the Corinthians and is on what love is. Of all the writers in all the world who have tried to put love into words, I think that St. Paul comes closest to what that ideal love should be. The text is familiar and is commonly used at weddings, but I invite you to take some time with the passage to truly ponder it and its implications for our relationships.
Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, it is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
