the truth about living in love
Love ALWAYS wants us to be our highest and best self. Love does not seek to control any part of us, but watches with delight when we find our truth.
When we fly, love soars in response, laughs in delight and gives us encouragement to go higher still.
Love does not ask us to be less than all God created us to be, or not express ourselves, or to bear abuse. That is not love at all – do not believe it if someone offers you ‘love’ that ‘costs’ you in these painful ways.
True love is not about need, but about joy – as it flows from you and to you it fills the air, and your soul, with light! True love allows us to give the same love in return and so it grows and we grow.
Real love is about letting go of expectation and delighting in the unexpected and the imperfection of ourselves. This kind of love is about being free, to create, to be excellent…just to be who you are. God’s beloved!
1 Corinthians 13 is the definition of love. This starts with ourselves, every relationship flows from our heart and comes from how we view ourselves. As we read the characteristics of love we realize we have shortchanged ourselves for a long time. Don’t settle for less than this love for yourself. Let all of your living be based in this love, and then our world will begin to change.
