What Is Love?



Besides the obvious --
  • a man caring for his disabled wife
  • a man so sacrificially, selflessly pouring his life out for his wife (yeah, what woman watches this and doesn't long to be loved and adored so by her own husband?)
But after the obvious responses, I kept hearing this one thing he said --
"God has loved us so unconditionally, and I understand that God has put His love in my heart. And, because I realize how much God has loved me, that's how I too can love my lovely wife."
And, conviction crept in. This couple isn't just for me to watch and want, but they are a challenge to me. Am I loving like this? "Because I too realize how much God has loved me, that's how I too can love" others!
