This love you call us to is complicated.
It is not about niceties,
feelings,
or keeping the peace
If so, this love would be easy;
A law in its own right.
Rather, love is beautiful;
reckless when discovered.
No longer about self protection.
It is about others. It is about truth.
Justice is present, yet grace abounds.
The captive is freed, while the freedman is bound.
Love is not easily explained by words,
rather by actions it is discovered.
Love without sincerity is hatred.
Love without truth is treachery.
Love is defined by the name of Jesus Christ.
Perfected among brothers.
Shared with neighbors.
Found among friends.
