What Love is Not

     Hiya, I wrote this down and i felt i should share with you. Many people have different ideas about the word Love. Here are some beliefs that are totally wrong.

1.   Love is not a feeling(i.e based on emotions) but a decision;

Many people believe Love falls on them automaticaly and is based on their feelings. Love is not a feeling but a decision that takes a well thought out process. Which incudes whether the person is a xtian, his or her character, how the purpose of the person fits wth yours e.t.c. Boaz took out time to know about her. You cannot afford to be led by your emotions. They are too flimsy to trust.

Lots of LOve

LOTS OF LOVE

Yes. This is still a continuation. The third step of living a love filled life is to love others, plain and simple. For a recap,  the first two steps are
1.    Having Love in your life (Accepting Jesus check it out at  http://lovingtalkz.blogspot.com/2012/08/about-love.html )
2.    Loving Yourself( It’s Okay to be Different, check it out @  http://lovingtalkz.blogspot.com/2012/08/about-love-2.html )
3.    Loving Others.

You may want to ask me who the “others” are. Others means everyone that is not you. ‘Ronke wait, do you mean I need to love those who I don’t even know.’ Yes, the whole of Humanity.
The premise is from the fact that we have a God who is love and loves the whole of humanity. It is our duty to love our father’s creations, especially Human Beings ( I don’t love mosquitoes too). Then you also need to love those who hate you (sounds like a tall order). Matthew 5: 46-48 (the message Bible says) If all you do is love the lovable, do you expect a bonus? Anybody can do that.  If you simply say hello to those who greet you, do you expect a medal? Any run-of-the-mill sinner does that.  "In a word, what I'm saying is, Grow up. You're kingdom subjects. Now live like it. Live out your God-created identity.
