Love; the strongest force ever
Love is kind and not selfish. It doesn’t think of its own, it’s not puffed up, thinketh no evil, rejoices in truth. Is a force that even the devil cannot resist. It can only be seen by our daily actions not by mere words. Love should be unconditional, so why act otherwise? We were asked to Love our neighbor as ourselves. You know that’s one difficult thing to do, but the height of true love indeed.
Sometimes I think about the love Christ showed to us humans and I wonder what kind of love it was? The next time you have a quarrel with someone and you are wondering if you should forgive or not. Remember that Love is not puffed up? The next time you feel cheated and you want to repay evil for evil, remind yourself that love does not think evil. The next time you are wondering how best to reward a great work that someone did for you, act in love by doing to him what you would have requested if you were in his shoes.
Love the greatest gift of all. You might have all the gifts of the spirit but if you do not have love then you are referred to as a sounding brass or a tinkling cymbal. Thats how important God wants you to love. Stop taking actions based on your impulse. Learn to look inward and let the gift of love play out from within. I have written this piece to you, because I love you.
Are you tired of the actions people take towards you? Your driver, staff, relatives or friends. Are you already getting tired of your relationship or marriage? You know what, give this force a trial. Love hard, love that fellow as if you won’t have another chance. Love with sincerity of heart. Try it and you’ll get a different result. It’s a force nothing can resist. Love right, love in purity.
