love should be a verb. living for something and naming ourselves as part of it means we need to act on it, do it, put it into motion. do something with the love you say you have.
if we love God, we've got to love his people. it is not the fact that we feel love for God that matters, it is what we do with that love. when we love him, we love what he's made. we love his people by giving time to each other. and we should always be thinking one step ahead, of how much impact our words will most assured have, good and bad. we need to stop thinking of how we look, how silly we might feel, and what people are going to think if we love HIM loudly in our lives. we all have a million things going on, and i will be the first to admit i feel stress a lot. but we have to give some time, good time, for people outside of our comfortable homes and clean routines.
i feel a bit frustrated about this lately.
love as a verb. please.
