How do you feel love when it occurs? Have you ever taken time out to think about what is love? The Bible commands us to love one another just as we love ourselves. But what does significant love feel like to you?



Is it when you get that sweet smile from your partner?

Is it when you receive an unexpected gift from that someone special?

Is it when your family calls and offers you come over and help you when you’re stuck in a deadline?

Is love a long romantic walk together in the park at sunset? Or a quiet dinner for two, with romantic music, a fire and candles?

Is it doing all the fun and exciting activities together, from movies to laughing together?

Is it searching for new truths together and growing closer, as you share great ideas and movies?

Is , even when no-one even watched or recognized you?

Or is love when in the middle of a busy and stressful day a dirty little smile beams: “I got this for you mommy" offering you a bunch of wilting flowers from your garden?

Is love that which gives you adrenaline, especially if it’s fun, dangerous or risky?

in other words

“How do you experience it? Would you receive it if it stared you in the face? Allow me to inspire you for a moment to think about it and list for yourself how you see it.

We don't often stop to think about it, and many of us usually presume that we either know the answers to these questions, or that they are obvious and that everybody knows them anyway!

Or else we assume that we don’t need to know them or that no one can in fact know for sure – ever: After all, Love just occurs – if you’re lucky – or it does not if you are not. And that’s that! Sometimes we suppose it has nothing to do with luck, but instead all to do with fate and that you were either destined to have it or not. You were either born blond and pretty with just the right eyes and build, and therefore you have it or else you do not! Maybe you have the privileged parents, Or the money and so you will automatically have love.

But wait a minute: If we don’t even know what love is or how we’ll identify it, how can we even begin? Well, you cannot beginto find anything out about love if you do not even know what it is or how you will recognize it! Just as you cannot pick up a map and hope to find your way to a town, whose name you cannot even pronounce, nor recognize or it’s known landmarks. We must from the start know exactly what we are searching for and how to clearly recognize love. Take a moment now to think about love.

Until next time when we pursue love more this is Pierre Basson saying “

“It is better to stand in love than to fall in love"
