Love [31 Days...Day7]

Love is patient, love is kind.

Love is a man splenrouder thing.

Lots of things have been written about love. I suspect it's the theme of most songs written and a lot of fiction.

Love is important though. Something possibly we need to survive. Love from someone.

Is the word overused though? Does that dampen what it means when we really tell someone we love them? I mean, I love chocolate, but it doesn't compare to what I mean when I tell my family that I love them. I love baking, but it doesn't compare to the love of God.

Showing love is so important. Showing God's love. I've been reading Matthew in a challenge with some friends to become more like Mary and less like Martha, and today one of them challenged us to live in a 'salty' way to point to Jesus. That's hard. But in showing love to other people we can start to do just that. Showing love that we have because God created us to love.

In the beginning God loved us, and He loves us to the end. He sent His son to die for us, that's how much He loves us. That's mind boggling, all consuming, indescribable love.

So today, let's show love. Let's show a little of God's love to someone else.
