Those who love deeply never grow old; they may die of old age, but they die young. -Pinero
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
I describe love as sacrifice. You see, love goes above and beyond what the world would suggest. The world says love is a feeling. While it feels good to be loved, that type of love changes because feelings change. The world says love is physical. While love is manifested in physical attraction, our physical bodies will change—what then? Some describe love as an emotional attraction to someone. Well, many people’s emotional state changes more than the weather. What happens when our emotions are like a roller coaster with the one we “love”?
Friend, to really find out what true love is look at The Lord Jesus! Look at His sacrifice for your salvation! His love toward you isn’t based on His feelings, your physic, or His emotions! His love toward you is based on His character. His character is defined in 1 John 4:16, “And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.”
