Part 3.
Love: an intense feeling of deep affection.
The fact that we've sunk so low that we define love by feelings is depressing.

Love isn't just a feeling. Those butterflies you get when you see Catholic Cutie are great and all, but it's not love. Loving your spouse is knowing you'll pass that exciting honeymoon stage and go into times of contentment and joy, and times of hardship. Loving your friend is even when they're having a bad day, not judging them and listening. It's sitting there, not having to talk, but just be together. Loving your family is not killing them😂. Jk. Loving your family is spending time with them even when they're driving you crazy. Love is an action.

We choose to love. Especially those who we think least deserve it. We need to choose to love the bullies. We need to choose to love the people who abandon us, the people with SSA, the people who are abortionists. The people that seem to be the most damaging are often the most damaged and in need of love.

We all need God in our lives. People who run around getting drunk or taking drugs are looking for a sense of contentment but that can only be found in love. This desire for love exists because we exist to fill a desire. Not a need, a want. We are wanted. Because like we want love, God wants us. He wants us to choose him, he doesn't want robots. No one wants to be with someone who doesn't want to be with him. Love is mutual. Love is work. Love is a choice. It's patient, and kind, it doesn't boast and it isn't envious. Faith, hope and love remain, and the greatest of these is love.
