Love

This week of course we expect to hear a lot about Love. Valentine's day and all of it's commercial celebration will make sure of that. I often wonder though at this time of the year just how well people understand love. It seems that in this world love is often confused as something that makes us feel good. In reality true love is always other centered. It is always seeking something better for someone else. Jesus modeled this kind of love for us and expects that we will take the hint and exhibit this love towards others. Imagine what a difference could happen if we were all about desiring the highest good for others all the time. Marriages would last longer, relationships would be healed and fighting would slow. If only we would love each other a little better.
