Love !!

Love comes in many forms, but it begins with God. All things have a begining. Lets consider the steps love takes throughout our lives. When we are born and begin to recognize faces we love, we recall our parents looking with love upon us. This is a pure simple love. This love makes us feel secure as it is based on a protective parental love.The next kind of love we may experience is the love of siblings. This is a rough and tumble love. It is a competitive love. It comes as we establish our place in the family.As we move out of the home, to join with other children in school we come to learn various levels of love. Friendship love,( some may last a lifetime). This love can be shallow if it is based on selfish motives. As we mature love becomes more complex. The love for our nation is a vital form of love. This love can take us to a height that can cause us to die for our freedom if our country goes to war. The love of a lover can be bittersweet. This kind of love is what drives us to procreate. It was designed in us by God to establish mankind. But it is the longest process of all the loves. It can begin with a glance, then it flows through lingering stares and then it comes to the highest level of exchange with the words ‘ I do” bonding us in marrage. Finally as we travel the full circle of life we are drawn back to the source of all love… back to God. This form of love is eternal. If all love comes from the purity of Gods heart, how can it be poisonous…
