What is love?

Love is much more than a feeling. Love is an action.

Love is a smile. Love is a helping hand. It’s a kind word, good advice, wisdom.

Love is someone who gets you. Love is someone who isn’t afraid to tell you the truth. It’s someone who will stay by your side through the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Love is a private joke. Love is a shared memory. It’s a cup of hot chocolate on a cold day and a glass of iced tea on a warm one.

Love isn’t saying how much a person means to you – it’s showing how much they mean to you. Love isn’t three little words – it’s constant steadfastness. Love isn’t a Valentine’s sentiment – it’s a 365 days of the year commitment.

Love is God, our Creator, our Father, stooping to meet us in our greatest need, taking our punishment for our sin, and cleansing us, justifying us, and giving us eternal life.
