You can love with all your heart no qestions asked!

"The love for equals is a human thing - of friend for friend, brother for brother. It is to love what is loving and lovely. The world smiles. The love for the less fortunate is a beautiful thing - the love for those who suffer, for those who are poor, the sick, the failures, the unlovely. This is compassion, and it touches the heart of the world. The love for the more fortunate is a rare thing - to love those who succeed where we fail, to rejoice without envy with those who rejoice the love of the poor for the rich,of the black man for the white man. The world is always bewildered by it's Saints. And then there is the love for the enemy - love for the one who does not love you but mocks, threatens, and inflicts pain. The tortured's love for the torturer. This is God's love. It conquers the world." -Frederick Buechner

To be a gentle spirit. Thankful and willing. God wants us to love, because love is the greatest thing on earth. But love is a choice. A choice that you and I get to make; to love or not love? Imagine if we all woke up tomorrow and every single person on this earth loved one another. They were willing to do whatever they could to help each other and were thankful they had the chance to do it. How amazing would it be if none of us sinned? Love conquers all, and so many of us take love for granted and toss it around like it is nothing sacred. If we could all just learn to love...really love with all our heart, mind, body, and soul, our world would know peace."When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace." -Jimi Hendrix
With that being said by good ol' Mr. Hendrix....Our world strives on power and not love. The power to have more money, the power to be in control, etc. Think about it! There are so many unhappy people in our world that don't know how to truly love. I pray that they one day come to know what it is like to love and be loved, and to know God's love; the greatest love of all!

A few days ago I went to the post office to mail something and witnesses a racist man shout horrible things to an elderly Asian man. I just could not believe what I heard and my heart immediately sunk into my stomach and I swear to you I could have started crying on the spot if I didn't stop myself! At that moment in time I realized how much this affected me and how much I didn't like people being so mean to each other! I put myself in the elderly Asian mans shoes and just thought "Oh my gosh, how horrible and sad would I feel if those things were said to me!?" I didn't realize I had so much compassion towards others who I don't even know. God has truly been working on my heart lately. I wanted to hug this man and tell him that it was okay!
Where is the love? This is what I am talking about. God's love; it conquers all! So many people don't even have a clue and I pray for them. I really do. They seem so lost and it actually makes me sad. I am so not trying to put myself on the high horse but I know what it is like to feel hated, not wanted, not good enough, tortured in a way by someone I love very much and no matter what I still continue to love this person. Why? Because I choose too! I choose to love. I love those who have wronged me, and that doesn't mean that I have forgotten. I just chose to forgive, to love, and to continuously pray for them. Hoping that one day, they know the love that I know. The love that God shows...because even those who don't have the Lord in their lives, He is still there, right by your side, waiting for you!

"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16
God loves us that much! How amazing is that!?

You can love with ALL your heart no questions asked! <3
