9 Bible Verses about Cherishing

But we were gentle among you, like a woman caring for her little ones:

See, your name is marked on my hands; your walls are ever before me.

I said in my heart, The Lord will not give ear to me:

Even so it is right for husbands to have love for their wives as for their bodies. He who has love for his wife has love for himself: For no man ever had hate for his flesh; but he gives it food and takes care of it, even as Christ does for the church;

He will give food to his flock like a keeper of sheep; with his arm he will get it together, and will take up the lambs on his breast, gently guiding those which are with young.

From far away he saw the Lord: my love for you is an eternal love: so with mercy I have made you come with me.

But you are a special people, a holy nation, priests and kings, a people given up completely to God, so that you may make clear the virtues of him who took you out of the dark into the light of heaven.

Because of your value in my eyes, you have been honoured, and loved by me; so I will give men for you, and peoples for your life.

For I have a very great care for you: because you have been married by me to one husband, and it is my desire to give you completely holy to Christ.
