What is Love?

We feel loved when we experience someone putting us before their own concerns. The willingness to die for someone is a sure sign of love. When I was dating, I wanted a man who would love me like Christ loved the church, and the Lord answered that prayer.

“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends. You are My friends if you do whatever I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all things that I heard from My Father I have made know to you.”  John 15:13-15  NKJV

“Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself for her.”  Ephesians 5:25  NKJV
