Galatians 5:22 - 25 (NKJV)
But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control. Against such there is no law. And those who are Christ's have crucified the flesh and its passions and desires. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.

Colossians 3:12 - 14 (NKJV)
Therefore as the elect of God, holy and beloved, put on tender mercies, kindness, humility, meekness, patience; bearing with one another, if anyone has a complaint against another; even as Christ forgave you, so you also must do. But above, all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection.

1 Corinthians 13:4 - 8a (NKJV)
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, things no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never fails.
Abba, Father for You so loved us that You gave us Jesus (John 3:16), Your love is the bond of perfection (Colossians 3:14), Your love for us casts out all fear (1 John 4:18) and we walk in in Your love because You loved us first (1 John 4:19); it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we rejoice in Your love and pray. Amen.
