Yes, I'm a thief but I mean well

I stole this from my dear friend, Cindy, who received it from her very insightful daughter, Sarah. I've shared and discussed it with my children and have been sowing that seed of thought and practice ever so tightly into my own life.

Agape is not an emotion. It is a stubborn choice to make someone's life better by loving them....Agape is a self-sacrificing, unconditional love. It is a one-way love: a love missile that is aimed at a person in hopes of blessing them and transforming their heart...Actively look for someone who is unlovely, ungrateful or withdrawn and do some act of kindness to them.

Challenging? Yes. Yes. YES!

Necessary? Absolutely.

Expected by our Lord? Without a doubt.

Now, go find somebody to love on and be blessed.
