While we were still sinners, Christ died for us out of love.
Lust is human nature, but love is patient, love is kind.
Envy is human nature, but love does not envy, it always trusts.
Pride is human nature, but love does not boast.
Gluttony is human nature, but love does not dishonor others, it always preserves.
Greed is human nature, but love is not self-seeking, it always hopes.
Wrath is human nature, but love is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrong.
Sloth is human nature, but love does not delight in evil, it rejoices with the truth.
Do everything in love.
