Love Is When ...!

Love Does Not Seek To Hurt! 

Correcting Someone In Love Is Not Abuse! 

Telling Someone That They Are Wrong 

Is Not 

Hating Them

Truncating Their Growth

Or Denying Them Their Right To Self-Expression! 

Beloved, 

Love Desires The Best For The One Loved! 

Love Does Not Seek Selfish Pleasure 

And 

Neither Does It Seek To "Bless" Itself 

By Maliciously Belittling Others! 

Love Is Not A Weather Station

A Balloon That Goes Up And Down 

According To The Temperature In The Atmosphere! 

Love ... Of The Godly Sort

Gives Good Gifts Of Grace 

And 

Is Merciful Even Though It Is Misused, Abused

Offended

Neglected

And

Even Discarded 

By The One Loved Who Does Not Know 

How To Rightly Respond To The Love That 

Expects Nothing In Return 

Save To See The Beloved Being Blessed 

Saved

And 

Sealed! 

Questions Deserve Answers ...

Who Is The One You Love 

Who Takes ... But Never Gives

Expects ... But Never Contributes

Demands ... But Never Delivers

Hopes ... But Never Helps

Sins Joyfully ... But Never Sings Gratefully!?! 

Are You, Perhaps, The One Loved!?! 

Think Critically, Carefully, Calmly, About It 

And

By Almighty God's Amazing Grace

Let Love Not Be Proud

But 

Simple, Kind, Giving, Forgiving

Great 

And

Godly! 

Love Is Divine: 

Love Is Of Almighty God! 

Please Give Godly Love Today!

 Peace!

Let's Pray:

God Of Mercy

Lord Of Love

We Long In Peace

To See Your Face!

Help Us Not To Commit Sins Of Commission

And

Please Help

Not To Commit The Sins Of Omission

Where We Neglect

To Do The Thing Just

Good And Right

Forgetting Our Fellowman

And

Ignoring The Fallen Brethren's Plight!

Help Us To Be Like Our Master Christ Jesus

Who Clearly Marked For Us A Way

And

Help Us To Walk Right In It

So That We Don't

For Our Sins

Have To Pay!

Teach Us Your Way, Lord

And

Help Us To Live Faithfully In It

Ignoring The Calls Of The Flesh

So That We Don't Give In To It!

Bless Us WIth Your Joy

Your Peace

Your Rest

And

Let Hope Spring Eternal In Our Hearts

Until The Great Day Of Rejoicing Comes

And

We For Highest Heaven

Joyfully Depart!

In Jesus Christ's Holy Name

We Pray And Humbly Plead!

We Love You, Lord!

Have Mercy And Bless!

AMEN.
