What is Love?

What is love? And who ever said that love was easy? We look at the stories on television and in the movies and think that love is so easy to have and keep. We even approach life with this quick/easy type love that soon fades and evaporates as soon as it comes. The love we think we have, we only want it until it makes us work. But that’s not love. Love doesn’t even show up until a problem, trial, suffering, or trouble rears it’s ugly head. If you shrink back from it, you have no love. But if you plunge into it, then you are on your way. There are two types of love: the Delusional and Unconditional. LOL

Delusional love is basically placing a superficial perception on what you are experiencing and reacting to that perception as if it’s real. Then there is true love. True love is defined in the eyes of God. He defines true love as Love is long suffering, love is kind, it is not jealous, love does not boast, it is not inflated. It is not discourteous, it is not selfish, it is not irritable, it does not enumerate the evil. It does not rejoice over the wrong, but rejoices in the truth. It covers all things, it has faith for all things, it hopes in all things, it endures in all things. Love never falls in ruins. (1 Corinthians 13)

When we look at this, this kind of love, gives us anxiety. It means that we must work for the love in our lives. We may struggle but this is the most rewarding type of love to have. If it can not stand through the test of fire, then is it really love? The fire tests your character, heart, inner man, and spirit. How else can you let go of your own desires to care about the desires of others? Love wasn’t made to be comfortable. It is made to build you up as well as the people around you and how you all relate to one another for a greater change; a greater good. So if you want true love, you have to have armor because it’s gojng to be a rough ride. And if you don’t want true love then keep on doing what you’re doing but something will always be missing.

Love Quy
