FORMS OF LOVE

What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like. - AUGUSTINE

Love. Over time it’s a word that’s so intricately linked to its romanticised definition that we can miss not only the many forms of love that are around us but more importantly we can miss the enormity of the love God has for us.

Love is not just a feeling you get when you meet ‘the one’ or when you hold your child in your arms for the first time, or when you like an outfit you’re wearing. Love is an action. It bears fruit. It is eternal. It is transformational and it is sacrificial.

As you journey through this week’s readings, spend time reflecting on your own experiences of love – in relationships, in community, in family and in your relationship with God. Over the next week we hope that the word ‘LOVE’ takes on new meaning and depth in your life, a meaning anchored not in romantic feelings or earthly relationships but one that is anchored in your Heavenly Father.
