well, to add to what ive already written here, im 47 years old, im in a very happy, NOW stable relationship with a wonderful man. over the past year, ive learned that love is an ACTION word. its not a FEELING. to say love is just a FEELING is implying it is something you have no control over. love is an active CHOICE. its a DECISION.today, i see, part of the bargain in being a member of the body of Christ, is that it is a requirement, indeed a COMMANDMENT to love everyone i come across, even if i dont like them. if god gave love to us as a commandment, then its a given He also provides the means for us to be able to do it.
