What is love?
Love requires nothing of its object except to exist Relationship requires more Reconciliation requires more But love loves because of its own nature Not because of anything about its object If I love a person because of that person's loveliness, or lovable nature, that says nothing about me--only something about the other person. And I conclude, therefore, that I cannot love without God's indwelling, heart-changing spirit.
