In Pursuit of Love

It's a rare human who isn't looking for genuine, true, even unconditional love.


Over the years some have stated publicly that they appreciate love is my accent while others speak of conviction and straight at the issue sort of lyrics and speaking they have gotten via me. No matter because on either end of the spectrum I've often messed up whether in delivery or hard facts as -GOD- determines what is truly true and what is my own blundering, even wrong-headed ideas and behaviors.


So what's this got to do with love? Everything.


Like all of us (whether we realize it or not) I have lived a life in pursuit of love. I've also continually desired to share authentic love with others. Again, have I blown it, truly sinned in the process? Plenty. I'm not alone in this dear reader as I suppose it's the same for most all on the planet. Except for One.


Over the recent years I've written and spoken about the Perfect Judge Who alone loves perfectly. Due to pain, suffering and -real- injustices in this life we are tempted to doubt His very existence and of course, "how could a loving God allow -fill-in-the-blanks". Understood.


But what human is perfect and without flaw in every judgment, in loving, in personal sacrifice for others? I will eternally stake my claim and faith in Jesus Christ, in God our Father and the work of the Spirit to be all of these. What I'm positive of is no human fulfills them nor can.


So who gets to define love? What does love look like and how does it manifest in a fallen, tragic, unjust world? Do sinful humans (you and I regardless of saving faith) have such heart, wisdom, knowledge? Does it not make sense to pursue and also pursue living out what Jesus both taught and lived in example?


This is my pursuit.


I truly hope it's yours!


As always, thanks for stopping by. -Glenn
