These are two words we hear A LOT in today's colloquail conversations. They are the perfect way to blow off a comment, passively express your disgust in a person or topic, or insert yourself into a conversation to take it over. But recently, I saw them expressed in a letter being passed between two lovers:
lover 1 : thank you for loving me anyway
lover 2 : i'll love you whatever
lover 2 : i'll love you whatever
Any one of us - or, all of us - could be lover 1.
Any one of us - or, all of us - could also be lover 2.
But, our amazing Heavenly Father is ALWAYS lover 2... He always loves us whatever may come, whatever we do, whatever the circumstance.
THAT is the kind of love we have received and as we have freely received, we are to freely give. And THAT is also our challenge as Christ-followers: to express the love and grace of God without any mixture of religiousity... to love in such a way as to remove all barriers to true friendship... to love in such a way that our beliefs are coherent with our behaviors... to love in such a way that we ooze Jesus everywhere we go.
Jesus loves me... Jesus loves you... and so do I.
