\nDay 18 in this Month of Love — Increase the Love Dosage <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nValentine’s Day ended four days ago and I wonder how many are still enjoying the outpouring of love they received on that day. And, what about those who are thrilled all the hoopla about Valentine’s is over with? Whether we were celebrated or we tolerated it, it really doesn’t matter. What matters is “Are we loving to the extent that we wish to be loved?” <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nMother Teresa once said, “‘Not all of us can do great things. But we can do small things with great love.” I think it’s the same with a relationship with a significant other, as well as the stranger we meet on the street. We should love like we want to be loved. To practice being more loving, we should create a love account. Each day, if we’ll make a few deposits into this account by doing something small to add joy into the life of someone else, how blessed, in turn, will we be. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n

<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nIt\u2019s so easy to get bogged down with our daily routines, and before we know it, our love accounts can be depleted and when we should respond to those around us with love and kindness, we,instead, carelessly say something that is disparaging and hurtful. It’s up to us to live in love consciousness — making choices dictated by the ACTIVE walk of love. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n<\/a><\/div>\n
\nWhat does an ACTIVE walk of love look like? It’s actively walking across the street to help our neighbors, actively cooking a warm meal for a friend in need, or it’s actively visiting a near-by nursing home to love on the elderly. Let’s ask God to lead us to places where He wants us to shine His light and ask Him for the courage and strength to share His love with all who surround us in our daily lives. <\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
\n
\nLet’s perpetuate this Month of Love by giving out HUGE doses of love to everyone we encounter. With eyes focused on He WHO is love, our “filter” will be through the love He gave to us, and we won’t be able to resist loving like He loves. And, maybe when we do this, we will guide people to His beauty and they, too, will begin to actively love others and then, who knows how many lives will be impacted?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n “By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” John 13:35.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
