Love (1 Corinthians 13:1-7, NIV)

     If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am 
only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal.  If I have the gift of prophecy and
can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move
mountains, but have not love, I am nothing.  If I give all I possess to the 
poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
     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.

I think there is something in this passage for everyone, no matter what their
religious persuasion.
