Feeling Loved

We usually feel loved when someone does something for us that makes us happy.

If they do an action that doesn't elicit a response of good feelings on the inside then we usually don't think, oh they love me.

We think, they've shown me love today because

"they've made me feel better,"

"they make me happy."


But if true love is from God, and

God is more focused on your Holiness than your happiness,

then when we love someone shouldn't it make them more holy,

not necessarily happy.

It's awesome and easy to do when they are both one in the same.

Othertimes I think we try to love someone with happiness rather than holiness.

Shouldn't there be a 6th sense type of love language,

Physical touch, quality time, gifts, acts of service, words of affirmation AND holiness.
