Love And Lust

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not
envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.
It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is
not easily angered, it keeps no record
of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil
but rejoices with the truth. It always
protects, always trusts, always hopes,
always perseveres."
(1 Corinthians 13:4-7 *NIV)

Society often confuses love with lust,
But the love we receive from God,
Has not one sexual overtone.

He just showes us all what true love is,
It's the best of Fatherly loves God alone.

Nothing sexual ,yet most intimate at best,
God gives us all His love,
We give Him humanly the rest.
