...is love! We are most like Jesus when we are loving others. Three parts of today's chapter I latched on to...
1. Love cannot be learned in isolation. You have to be around other people, irritating, imperfect, and frustrating people. I'm sure I am that person to some others!
2. Paul said he is "bankrupt without love." And, he was never married! He is talking about love for God and our love for each other.
3. Relationships are most important and yet we let worldly issues and life's tasks displace God. I read "The Screwtape Letters" by C.S. Lewis and this comment reminded me of that book. The devil uses this world to take our hearts and minds off of God and loving others.
I also liked Warren's summary of love at the end of the chapter..."The best use of life is love. The best expression of love is time. The best time to love is now."
