Love is in the air. Valentine’s Day is fast approaching. There is much talk about love and what you should do to show your significant other how much you care about them. But before you go diving into what the world says about love, consider what the Bible says about it. Scripture references love between 400 and nearly 800 times (depending on the translation). Since Valentine’s Day falls on the 14^th of February, we wanted to provide 14 Bible verses about love.

Whether you’re looking for something biblical to add to your Valentine’s Day card or want to do a deep study about what God says about love, these Bible verses are a great place to start!
