The Secret to loving is living loved - did you catch that LIVING LOVED! Does running into certain people leave you frail and brittle, breakable and fruitless? If so, your love and even my love may be grounded in the wrong soil. It may be rooted in their love (which human love is very fickle) or it may be rooted in your/our resolve to love (which is somewhat frail). John, in I John 4:16 urges us to "rely on the love GOD has for us" He alone is our power source for LIVING LOVED - it is then that we can love and be loved...try it out I have been and it sure changes the way we love people!
"We know and rely on the love God has for us" I John 4:16 NIV
