What Does It Take to Love?

Love is a choice; you cannot make someone love you. You can do things to cause others to stop loving you. If a person continues to hurt the ones who loves them, the one(s) who love them may do so without openly expressing their love.

God wants us to love and to be loved. He says... “do to others as you would have them to do to you. We are to love the Lord our God with all of our mind, soul and strength. We also ...love our neighbor as ourselves. God loved us first. We must FIRST love God; without His love, we can't love. We can’t love others unless we love our self.

What does it take for you to be loved? What does it take for you to love? What do you take to love? First, you need God’s love to love and to be loved. He wants us to come to Him. Before we EVER reach out to God, His love has already reached us.

To know God is to know Love. It takes God- us loving God, God loving us, us loving others, and others loving us.
