A Love That Won't
Quit
Text: 1 Cor. 2:9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear
heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which
God hath prepared for them that love him.
Introduction:
What is love?
No words can define it-
It’s something so great
Only God could design it.
It grows through the years
In sunshine and rain,
In gladness and sadness,
In pleasure and pain,
It’s ever-enduring and patient and kind-
It judges all things.
With the heart, not the mind…
And love can transform,
The most common place,
Into beauty and splendor,
And sweetness and grace…
Yes, love is beyond what man can define,
For love is immortal,
And God’s gift is divine.

saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith
unto him, Feed my sheep. 17He saith unto him the third time, Simon,
