True Love....

Good Morning Christian Peeps! Love is so much more than a word. It goes beyond the basics. It stretches farther than we can imagine. Love transcends the darkest night. Love brings hope to places of despair. Love gets up in the middle of the night to help someone. Love gives it's last dollar just to see someone smile. Love puts itself last in any situation and prefers others over him/herself. So many times we try to put our own definition on love and our own spin on it. We try to imagine what love feels like or how it should make us feel. The world has given us so many skewed ideas of love that we are lost and confused. Maybe we are looking at the wrong source for true love. The Bible gives us so many clues in the love chapter (I Corinthians 13). We try to make it so complicated and complex but it is very simple. When we love with the love of Christ, which is the only love....we would ultimately die for that person, we would protect them, we would encourage them, we would delight in their truth not in their wrong doing. We would support them and lift them up. We would not keep a record of their wrongs, we would not use leverage against them to keep the upper hand. If true love is what we seek we have only to measure it with God's love to know if it is the real deal. Be Blessed!
