True Love

With Valentine's Day approaching I have been thinking about love.

It is well known that there are no single two people in the world that are exactly the same. But love has a way of bringing together people that are meant to be together in life.

Many people wonder what do I do if I meet someone that I love but yet we have different views about many things. This happens alot because as much as we try to force ourselves not to believe that opposites attract, they do. The important things is what you must agree on for any relationship to work. Like religious beliefs, how to handle money, these sorts of things.

Heres the part that I always find amazing when I hear people tell their love stories about their lives. Often times, if it's a true love, all the other things fall in to place. People are worried about this or that detail, but when it's true love, each person sacrifices something and they inevitably find a way to make it work.

I am a Christian, and it never ceases to amaze me how the ultimate love sacrifice was made so that we can live eternally. That Jesus Christ died on a cross so that we may have eternal life, and there was nothing that we had to sacrifice or do for him. He did it out of true love for every person that walks the face of this earth, without a second thought.

That was the ultimate act of true love.

John 13:34-35 "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."
