LOVE is spelt as SACRIFICE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It doesn\u2019t matter how much you say you love someone. LOVE is not love without commitment, and commitment is not commitment without sacrifice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only true way to MEASURE LOVE is by your level of COMMITMENT, and we can\u2019t talk of commitment without SACRIFICE!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So can we stop deceiving ourselves?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Did you say you love God? Did you say you love your family? Did you say you love someone? Forget all the flowery words about love. Much talk is vanity. Measure your relationship by this one yardstick of sacrifice. Check how much sacrifice you\u2019re putting into it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
John 15:13, \u201dGreater love has no one than this, than to lay down one\u2019s life for his friends.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
May I grow up in understanding by changing my definitions. Henceforth, no more self deception. I will measure everything by the level of sacrifice I\u2019m willing to give to it. Jesus defined His love for us by His dying for us. He has set the standards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If I love you, then I must sacrifice for you. That\u2019s my commitment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
