We must first define love the way God does.
It is not the emotional, hugging, card-giving, “I want to be
with you” feeling.
While we do show these actions and feelings to family
members and friends, God’s kind of love goes deeper.
His kind of love is dying to self. Putting the needs
of others before our own. Even people we don’t like. Or those who drive us crazy,
cut in line, bless us with foul words, or just really don’t like us.
How do we die to self?
