The Act of Loving

There is so much brokenness in the world and for young people most of the time brokenness is caused by relationships gone wrong. How will we respond to a relationship gone wrong? By responding it with more love and sometimes more love means letting go. Whether that relationship started and ended right or wrong is another matter, the important truth is we did love.

You know why you are hurt? Because you loved! If you haven’t loved you would not have been hurt at all. The act of loving is in itself a blessing. Whether that love is reciprocated or not is another thing.  The result of loving someone can be different, but just the same you loved! And like Jesus, that is what is important.

Lord, your love for us caused suffering on You, allow us to persevere when we suffer the same in loving others. Amen.
