People love to talk about love. Nearly all religions teach something about love. Even people who consider themselves non-religious think about, talk about and celebrate love. The problem is that apart from God’s revelation, humanity often gets love wrong. There are many feelings and actions that are classified as love by the world that are not. And often, what we consider love is actually selfish. Even when we love other people, it’s often because those people please us or make us happy. But real love isn’t about us and how others make us feel. In 2 Corinthians 5:14, the Bible says that “the love of Christ controls us…” and in verse 15, it says Christ “…died for all, that those who live might no longer live for themselves.” Real love is not focused on self. Real love isn’t about how others make us feel but about our choice to humbly, kindly, and even sacrificially serve others.
