WHERE IS THE LOVE?

That question can be asked by a lot of people. I, myself sometimes ask this question. Where is really the love when hatred and anger rules this world? Conflicts, biases, wars really conquers the place that we call home. Our earth. Our universe that God has wonderfully created for all of us. We are here to love. Even God sent His son to love us. And loving one another can be as hard as it gets. It's difficult man! it's crazy!

We all live in this crazy world trying to love and give love. Giving ourselves. But sometimes people could not just get it. More times people can just ignore you and not even smile as you say hello. And you ask, "where is the love?"

huh! sigh...

But then we are not here to be granted that love back. We are here to give that love.

GIVE UNTIL IT HURTS! this one is crazier that i thought.

It's nice to read in words but in the real essence, it's difficult. more than ever. To love is to sacrifice. To love is to feel that pain. I just wonder on how God has experienced all that pain that we give to Him. I just can't even imagine how He cried everytime we hurt Him. But then.. He still welcomes all of us with this undying and unconditional love that He has been offering to us. I am just amaze every time He presents Himself to me. With His ever word in the scriptures, with ever gaze of a friend. with every hug of my parents. with every smile of the people whom i even don't know. God is there. He is everywhere!

And so is LOVE. It's everywhere.

It's just up to us to find it. It's just up to us to look for it. It's up to us to unite ourselves with it.

LOVE is also in our hearts. ready to give. ready to take the risk. ready to sacrifice. ready to feel the pain or that hurt. but at the same time ready to accept every fulfillment every time we give that love to someone. And more at the same time, ready to not expect something in return.

Love is big and deeper than you can imagine. It's unconditional. Non-negotiable. We are all called to love and we should love. We are all called to give and we should give.

It's a commandment. It's from our Almighty.

Though it's hard my friends. Yes, it really is.

We have to.

"Love one another as I have loved you." - John 13:34-35
