And this is my commandment: That you love one another, as I have loved you. " John 15:12
True love is a translation of our actions. It's more than saying nice things:
1 John 3:18.
A great man said: "Our actions, in support of our words, are the evidence of our love" ... And how true it is! It is not good to say that we love if we do not translate it into the action that proves it.
True love is voluntary
It has its source in God himself since it is His love in us that allows us: To give others what we want for ourselves and
Serve in love for others without expecting anything in return
Forgive the wounds in my heart despite not hearing an apology ...
"God so loved the world that he has given his Son ..." (John 3:16 a). The example of God shows us love given in relation to others, without reservations and with sacrifice. I must not forget, in the midst of this walk in love, that it is God who enables us to love and act according to this decision, as long as I remain attached to Him. True love is ready to serve: the wife or husband , children, brothers of blood and in Christ. True love does not seek retribution. Luke 6:35: "... not expecting anything from it ..." ... because he understands that the reward comes from God !! Let God love through us! And even those who harm us arrive. Luke 6: 32-35.
How difficult it is in our own strength to be able to love those who have hurt with their words and actions, who have left wounds in our hearts! But ... when we think of the pain that often our own lives and actions produce in the Lord ... we become aware of our own condition ... (Psalm 103: 1-5, 10-12) We must forgive and love as God Forgive us and love!
The Holy Spirit gives us the Grace to love.
