Life is a course designed to teach us to love.
That’s kind of interesting to think of life this way. It’s not something just to endure. But it is designed for us to learn to love.
The ultimate expression of this generous love is Jesus dying on
the cross. He calls us to lay our lives
down out of love.
The way we respond to everything that happens in our lives causes
us to either love more or love less.
Sometimes we turn away from love because it can be painful. Sometimes we turn away from love because we
don’t want to be hurt. And sometimes we
turn away from love because we are afraid of where it will lead us.
Wisdom lies in realizing that love is the only way.
Jesus came to teach us to love without conditions.
Jesus, teach me to love with abandon.
Amen.
