Eternal Lord, Your word tells us that love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous, boastful, proud or rude. Love is not irritable, and keeps no record of wrongs. Precious Lord, tonight we pray for Your help so that we show each other this kind of love through our actions every day. Make our love for each other reflect Your holy, truly and perfect love. Help us to be mature Christians, and treasure our unity with each other as a gift from You. Keep our focus on You as the center of our relationship, and strangle any jealousy or anger that tries to damage our bond with each other. In Your name, Amen.
