#299 Love Is Not a Reward
Mar 18, 2024
I think a lot of us grew up believing, at some level, that love was a reward for good behavior. And yet, when looked at through the eyes of God, love is never a reward. Love is actually the first and greatest commandment, it is a law. The law of love teaches us that regardless of how others act, regardless of how we're treated, regardless of what is said or done, our responsibility in every situation is to learn how to love. That's a tall order, to be sure, and it is also the way to find our greatest happiness and best relationships ever.
