Love is the overbearing, overwhelming sensation that creeps into the depths of who you are to the point where when someone else is hurting, all you want to do is help them out of it.
Love is the decision to keep choosing, keep fighting, for another person even when everything or everyone around you is saying to choose yourself first, always.
Love is the never-ending, unfailing, impossibly good choice that leads to life, joy, peace, and truth in the midst of chaos and hardships. Oftentimes, the love makes it worth shoving through the hard stuff.
Love is the way you light up someone else's life in a world full of darkness.
Love is how you welcome others into your home or life, and choose to keep them there whether they deserve it or not.
Love is how you know you're saved. Without love, it is impossible for us to be free from sin and darkness, and in turn, without love we cannot please God.
We love because he first loved us. Not because we deserved it, not because it was right for us to receive, but because God loves, we learn to love too.
Don't give up. Don't stop loving others, those around you, especially those who need it most and don't get it anywhere else.
Show love. Be like Jesus.
