A few days ago we observed the holiday of love; Valentine's Day. On that one day, tremendous significance is placed on the romance of love. It is a day dedicated to celebratory displays of one's feelings for another. The truth of the matter is, love, in its most pure expression is not based on romance or feelings.
Real love is so much more than romance and feelings. The Bible is replete with declarations of God's love for us. 1 John 4:9&10 speaks of God's love for us being so great that He sent His one and only Son into the world to die on the cross for our sins. That is the exemplification of real love; by this we can know (receive) real love.
Real love is unconditional in its nature. It is not self-seeking, but giving. It is more than just words; it is our actions. Real love can be seen.
And to God be the glory!
