The World’s Idea of Love is Exactly Wrong
from Asbury Church · host Senior Pastor Andrew Forrest
The world’s idea of love is exactly wrong. See, the world thinks that one has to be worthy or deserving of love in order to receive it. The Bible’s idea of love is the exact opposite. Love isn’t something one earns, but rather a free gift one receives. The one who loves *chooses* to will the good of the other. Love is a choice. This means it is possible to love people who are wrong. We see this with Jesus when he interacts with a mess of Samaritan woman. He moves first toward her, and her entire village is changed as a result. Love goes first. To whom do we need to go first this week?
