Genuine Christian love is forged against the anvil of our selfishness and possessiveness... It is important to remember that love is more than a feeling. It is active and transitive. The real test of my loving is not that I feel loving, but that the other person feels loved by me. Love is what I do to create this sense of feeling cared for.

- Morton T. Kelsey, from his book Companions on the Inner Way

Know that you are loved,

Greg, I loved this post! How true it is! I remember when I first got saved, Gods love was so shed into my heart that I thought it would burst! I found out I didn't really know what love was all about before this. Always loved for how it made me feel. How selfish that worldly love really is! Then when I experienced Agape love, it was the most wonderful thing I had ever experienced! Even tho I FELT it, I as a baby Christian still didn't know how to express it to others. I remember Pastor Fain preaching on "love isn't something you FEEL, its something you do!" Really impacted my life at an early spiritual age! Then I had to start praying for God to show me ways to really show His love to others! Thank you!

Amen Connie. I always tell people that love brings action as God showed us by example and is declared in John 3:16. God loved us so much, He acted and gave us His Son. He just didn't say "I love you". He domonstrated His love. We are to follow that example. Know that you are loved, gaj
