1 Cor. 13:5
"(Love) seeks not its own."
The Church likes to invoke 1 Cor. 13 at weddings, which is fine, but it misses the point. The passage isn't talking about eros, its talking about agape. It is a selfless love that the Church really needs to get its mind around. It is love purely for love's sake, love as its own reward, love without motive, love without hope of return.
