Happy Valentines Day, loggers!Here’s a chance to read excerpts from this week’s LOGblog about love written by adult leader Jamie! “This week’s verse reminds me of how important the concept of love is to God. Even bigger than our faith. Even bigger than our hope. The verses preceding this one discuss how everything else we do in this life is nothing unless done with love. I’m reminded of how we discuss sacrificial love at the LOG weekend. In the same way that Jesus gave up his life on the cross out of love for us, we are called to live sacrificially for our family, our friends, even our enemies; all those that are considered our neighbor...
There are also people that aren’t as easy to love. This could be someone at work or school that makes your life difficult, people who bully you, or people who seem to bring negativity with them everywhere. In these situations, while it is so hard, I try to keep in mind that they too matter to God and were made in His image. I try to remember that I am called to love my neighbor. What does it look like to love someone you don’t want to love? For me, when I can’t start with love, I start with service instead. I draw on my love for God and my knowledge that he loves that person who is difficult for me to love. When I do something nice for them, something that makes their life easier, I find that I have invested a little of myself into their lives. Once I’ve done that, I start to care a little more how they are feeling. Maybe I start to understand where their struggle, anger, or negativity comes from. Even if I get no thanks or appreciation, I know that I’ve chosen to treat them well and show them a little of the love that Jesus calls us to.
Whether I am starting with love and from that love I want to serve or whether I start by serving and in doing so come to love someone a little better, I realize how great and powerful love is in our lives and in the lives of others as well. This Valentine’s Day, serve someone you love but also consider loving someone you wouldn’t normally think of by serving them well.”
