LOVE'S CONCEPT

"True love is neither physical, nor romantic. True love is an acceptance of all that is, has been, will be and will not be." - Anonymous



1 Corinthians 13:4-8 (NET)
4 Love is patient, love is kind, it is not envious. Love does not brag, it is not puffed up.
5 It is not rude, it is not self-serving, it is not easily angered or resentful.
6 It is not glad about injustice, but rejoices in the truth.
7 It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never ends. But if there are prophecies, they will be set aside; if there are tongues, they will cease; if there is knowledge, it will be set aside.


Children are such delights to behold. They have beautiful dreams. For instance, the girl child. She wants to dress like an angel and be treated as a little princess, having dreams that she would marry the most charming prince. Most little girls want to get married someday in the most beautiful dress and in a lovely gathering. But as she grows older and matures, she soon discovers that there's something more beautiful than having such fantasies she had when growing up. She discovers something she could even give up all her fantasy wedding for. As long as she gets to spend the rest of her life for love's sake (that is, enjoying love from the one she has committed herself to be with), she's okay.

How sweet it is to you see two people so much in love looking into each other's eyes as they are being joined by the minister and as they make their vows, "Till death do us part." As those words seal the marriage covenant, their friends and guests stand as witnesses alongside God Himself, the One who instituted marriage. But before you know it, just a couple of years down the path, many couples in our generation call it quits. Yes, the marriage is slammed on the rocks and the news of a divorce stuns everyone who was there to witness the coming together. Then you ask but I thought they were so much in love? The marriage is called off because they never really knew what love is, what love should be. They claimed they were in love but something fundamentally necessary was missing.

A whole lot of people need to repent as touching their concept of love. Love isn't the feeling one feels but does not know how to describe. It never is the emotional rise that beats us beyond imagination, neither is it sexual intercourse. Love is work. Love is a commitment. Love is a decision to stick to someone you have chosen to be with. Love is selflessness. Love is being able to make yourself a fool to just let your partner get the better treatment than yourself. Love is exactly what the Bible says it is. True love is sticking to loving someone and sticking to the marriage institution despite all their flaws.

Keep Loving, Keep Living...............LOVE ISSUES
