Love is ...
Galatians 2:20 New English Translation
20 I have been crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So the life I now live in the body, I live because of the faithfulness of the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me.
Love is hard to understand (in the flesh)
For it seems to fade so easily in the inner-man
I guess it takes over who I am and how I’m to live
And then it molds me into His Image as only He can
I lose myself, as I am changed, and be able to forgive
Addressing then my soul’s domineering matter?
It can only be distinguished reality’s evidence
Where the source of love is missing and shattered
As in true reality, to self, it takes just a little sense
With the spiritual Love of God the world just fades away
The nature of God’s love surely is not interchangeable
But you know with my “own” love ,that’s for “my” own sake
Seems built on feeling and circumstance ,so very conditional
Jan Wienen
