1 John 4:16 (NLT) — 16 We know how much God loves us,

 and we have put our trust in his love. 

God is love, and all who live in love live in God, 

and God lives in them.

1 John 4:19 (NRSV) — 19 We love because he first loved us.

Jude 2 (NRSV) — 2 May mercy, peace, and love be yours in abundance.

For my friend who has found a new love

and will soon allow 

the world to know!

May mercy, peace and love be yours in abundance!
