Real Love

THOUGHT:  REAL LOVE

What is real love?  Is it something that we see or is it something that we feel?

 *** By definition, Love is a strong attraction that we have for someone or something.

We, as humans, know that when a person or thing that we love is not in our sight or reach, we continue to think about them/it until we see them or it again.

***We also say, Out of sight, out of mind. This not true concerning love.  Absence makes the heart grow funder. Unless something abrupt and destroy our love for the person or thing, we continue to love them/it
in spite of their short comings.

We were created to love. The bible says, God is love. He created us in him image because he loved us so very much. He gave His life for us through his agape love, so that we may love others as we love ourselves.
Out of all His creation, He chose us to be in his image. To talk, walk, look and also to love as He loves.

*** Love is the strongest emotion that a human has; it can not be controlled. This is why love covers a multitude of  faults; and out of of the three: faith, hope and charity (love); love is the greatest of the these.

Hate is another strong feeling but does not dominate love. If we become oppsessed with hate it can destroy us. Love does not act this way; it is a fruit of the Holy spirit, and carries many benefits and blessings with it.

***Many times we look for love in the wrong persons, places, and things. Please don't make the mistake of thinking money, possessions and status can replace love. All these things help our livelihood; but they will never replace love.


***This is what the bible says about Love:

I Corinthians 13: 4-8

Charity (love) suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up.

Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;

Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, and endureth all things.

Love never faileth.


*** On valentine's day lets remember that we have, and always will have someone that loves us deeply; and He gave us his greatest gift; we call him Jesus.


Whatever gifts we receive that day, lets remember the true giver and the love that was given with the gift.


Until we meet again - soon.
