"love never fails"


This verse in 1 Corinthians 13 has been my motto for about 3 years now...I have lived this out in various ways, but I would say the best have been through relationships with my husband, family, close friends and a year spent in Chicago.

As I continue to reflect on what "love" is, I realize how I receive love the best and give it...but does that make it "love"? I believe that the only love that exists is the love of God...everything else we give the title to really is just a poor attempt to be real love.

The world cannot exist without this perfect love from God, and neither can a relationship endure without it. So this blog, I hope, will be a reflection on how I experience love...God's and human...but more importantly, God's through people.

My desire is to say lovely...through every word, action and thought I have for others...and this is my journey.

Much love-
Emily Elizabeth
