Beauty |
|
"Like a gold ring in a pig's snout is a beautiful woman who shows no discretion."
~ Proverbs 11:22
In other words, someone may look sooo hot or just plain beautiful, but if this beauty is not also matched with inward
beauty, good looks seem ridiculous (like a ring in a pig's snout). Look not only for
outward beauty my friends, but also that within.

Love |

"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 delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always
hopes, always perseveres."

Revenge |
|
"Do not take revenge, my friends, but
leave room for God's wrath, for it is written: 'It is mine to avenge; I will
repay,' says the Lord. On the contrary: 'If your enemy is hungry, feed
him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap
burning coals on his head.' Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good."
~ Romans 12:19-21

back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I
am. You know the way to the place where I am going."
