Just a Few Thoughts on Love

Love is one of the most overused and misunderstood words in our vocabulary. We say we love someone and act lovingly toward them until they do something we don't like. We attach out love to our feelings when love should be an amendment to out feelings. Love is what steps in when you don't feel like it.

When you need a break but don't feel you deserve it, in love steps in, even Jesus rested. When you have been hurt by others or even yourself and can't forgive, love steps in and shows grace, that's what Jesus did when He died. When your too tired, broke, or scared to give anymore, love intervenes.Your relationship with God is not measured by your religion or the things you say or do it is measured by your capacity to love when Gods definition supersedes yours.
1 John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
