it's really kindof a neat thing, that we are given the opportunity to love people.
to care about them so much we are driven to tears because there's just no other way of expressing it.
to be given the privilege to know the things that make their hearts beat
to feel the warmth and the weight of love
and to know that I am experiencing only the tiniest fraction of what God feels for his children
to be invited into the reality that perfect love truly does cast out fear
to know the presence and existence of a truly great God because of the way that he uses us to love others
to feel pain in love unreturned, bringing us that much closer to the One knows much about that kind of pain
and to rest knowing the love of God that surpasses all knowledge and understanding.
that is what makes life worth living.
