All You Need Is Love

       "The second is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.' There is no other commandment greater than these." (Mark 12:31).  I love the last part of this. "There is no other commandment greater than these."  I think we forget how important this is.

       If we spent more time focusing on loving one another there would be far less problems in this world.  Just loving and respecting one another would solve SO MUCH in a short period of time.

       "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always perseveres." (1 Corinthians 13:4-7).

       The love that we sing and read about as well as what we see in the movies is not like the kind of love that we should be perusing.  That love is fleeting and based off of appearance and lust.  Real love is true and never ending.  It isn't some fleeting emotion that you get with every new boyfriend or girlfriend.  Real love is a consuming passion that is not easily mistaken for something else.

       Here is my challenge to you.  Spend more time loving each other instead of bringing each other down.  It will make you happier and give you a peace you've never known.  Keep on praying! God Bless!
