Love, the four-letter word that stirs hearts is cryptic and difficult to grasp. It can mean affection to our loved ones, kindness to strangers, loyalty to our country, preference for certain foods, and perhaps everything and everyone under the sun that we seemingly enjoy and adore. This is because we interpret love differently, and sometimes weirdly. And, Christian love, as the world understands often appears demanding, and perhaps even scary.

But, that is not the case. The Bible teaches us that true love is simple and pure and spelled with three letters – God. We see this true love expressed flawlessly and beautifully in John 3:16. When we ground ourselves to the single dominator of God’s love, then we can truly understand what true love is. Our love becomes finite when we don’t draw from an everlasting source.

Therefore, love – and how well we love – are so important because it is the only thing that should matter. As Peter Scazzzero once said, “who we are and how much we love will always have a larger impact on those around you than what you do”. The love of Jesus in each of us is truly the greatest gift we can give to others. In this season of love and romance, there are plenty of bible verses and prayers about love that you can pray for your loved ones. However, there are plenty of Christian love quotes to go around too. Whether it’s love prayer quotes, godly quotes for him/her, or even for yourself, let these quotes inspire you to express your love and affection for your loved ones, and yourself today. Let’s remind ourselves and each other of the power of love with these Christian love quotes because love never fails (1 Corinthians 13:8).

Here are 40 Christian love quotes that you can use this Valentine.
