Love..

1 corinthians 13:4

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonour others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

Love never fails."

Yet it seems, in this world, most 'love' does fail.

Friendships turned into hate,

Relationships gone sour,

Marriage turned into divorce.

The world is full of shit.

But find God, and you'll find true love.

Truly unconditional and overflowing love.

The love in this world is always conditional.

I love you, but i wish you'd love me back.

I love you, but i wish you'd do more for me.

I love you, but i wish you'd stop arguing with me.

I love you, but can you kick that idiotic habit of yours.

God doesn't care what you do, who you are, why He should love you in the first place.

God chooses to be blind in love.

Why should He, a pure and infinite God, love a puny, sinful, dirty race?

Yet love us, He does. No matter what we do, He will love us.

and its not as if we should obey His commands because He is who He is. We should naturally want to serve Him and please Him, because of the mere fact that His love for us exceeds all else.

We can choose to be complacent christians - because God will love us all the same, but knowing this, WILL we still want to do nothing in return?
