I'm still stuck on it. No matter what, I have not been able to get these love concepts out of my head.
Love. Simple love. This guy still has rocked my world.
The next side of love.
Relational love.
"I mean that to be in a relationship with God is to be loved purely and furiously. And a person who thinks himself unlovable cannot be in a relationship with God because he can't accept who God is; a Being that is love."
Later he told the story of this play that he was writing. After reading this from the script I haven't stopped thinking and replaying these words through out my head.
When you grasp that concept of the love of God that he is talking about right there.
God risked HIMSELF on me. It comes back to accepting that love-that pure and furious love- that is directed straight to you YOU. No catches, no expectations, just simply love.
What does that raw, untainted love look like? How does that look to you? To me I just can't even begin to understand-I can't comprehend that love. But I think coming to know a part of that love comes with loving others. It is such an awesome way to love Jesus more and to receive His love in a way only we as humans can experience. This love of dying to self and living for others.
God loves us all-He is delighted in each one of us. He sings over us and dances around us (Zeph 3:17) And we are to taste that as well-with our relationships with others. I am to love everyone and with hold no love from anyone. Even if that love is not returned I still must love.
be blessed
