Hi Readers! I am Jessica from Just Jessica and I am delighted to share with you today on Cat's blog.
I
wanted to share about my definition of love. I have been thinking about
this topic a lot because of all the summer weddings that have taken
place lately. I find myself dreaming about my wedding day and the day
that I will walk down the isle to marry my one and only. While love and
marriage are beautiful things I believe that there are two definitions
to love: The world and Religion.
I
tend to favor the religious view of love seeing as I am a Christian.
But I also see the view of the world. I don't think that the world is
wrong in their definition., love is a feeling yes. The love you have for
your spouse or your boyfriend or girlfriend is something deep and
profound. But to me love is just not a feeling. Love is an action.
I
believe in the Bible and I believe that Jesus died on the cross. He
died for my sins and for yours. God sent his ONLY son to die for all of
our sins no matter if we believe in him or not. He sacrificed his son so
that we could have LIFE. He payed all of our sins so that we wouldn't
have to do it ourselves. I was listening to a song the other day that
was talking about how great it was that God is was willing to send his
son. Because as the song says, it should have been each and every one of
us that went to that cross for our sins. But it did not happen that
way. It happened just the way that God intended.
Yes
love is a feeling but love is also a profound action of selflessness.
The love of the world is something that is fleeting and based on
feeling. While the Love that comes when one believes in Jesus is
something that is everlasting and solid.

ReplyDeleteNice post, Jessica! God's love really is different from what we are capable of as humans, isn't it? We can try to pass it on the best we can in order to honor him!
