For Chris and Rick

"Love is patient, Love is kind..."

A dear friend and fellow artist lost her husband a couple of days ago to cancer. This is dedicated to them. And while this Bible verse is most often heard at weddings, it makes me think of them and the love they've shared over the years. 

Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous;
love does not brag and is not arrogant, does not act unbecomingly;
it does not seek its own, is not provoked, 
does not take into account a wrong suffered,
does not rejoice in unrighteousness, 
but rejoices with the truth;
bears all things, believes all things, 
hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails...But now faith, hope, love, abide these three; but the greatest of these is love.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7,13

Rest in peace, Rick;
God bless you, Chris
