Love Is A Choice

Love is a choice, we choose to love or not love, it is not based, on  emotions or a condition, because these things change for many reason.  Our emotions and conditions are not engraved in stone.  Our emotions can change from one day to the next. One day we are happy, the next day we are sad.

Now if I am happy I would have you close, but if I am sad then I don't want you near me.  Conditions change just like emotions.  When you first buy a car the conditions are new, but after a few months or years the conditions change.  It's no longer new but used and it also still gets you where you want to go.

Now what we must understand is this sometime we equate love for people the same way we do for love on things.  Like our car, boat, house and the list goes on and on. Now when it comes to our care the manual says for us to service it according to maker.  So you can get the value of your purchase.  Change the oil every three thousand miles, rotate the tires and do other services to keep it in good condition.

Love need service to when it comes to people.  People need repair just like cars do, but people are a lot more complicated than a car.  Because we hear if they love me they wouldn't have done this or that. Well if your car loved you it wouldn't have broke down either.  But every now and then things go wrong things happen, and we have to take the car to the shop or fix it our self.  You don't give up on the car, you have grown to love it more now than the day you bought it.  You take care of it and it take care of you, gets you where you need to be.

Now as I said love is a choice, we choose who and how we love each other.  Now there are many kinds of loves out there.  But the love I am talking about is pure love, love unconditional, God's love.  For God is love, and because He loved us so much that He gave his only begotten Son.  Not based on emotions or conditions, because face it as people we are a mess.

We are up one day done the next, and our human love fails us in so many way, but when we learn to love in the same way that Jesus loved us, now we are on the right path.  Because His love never fails, it will always be there no matter what.  When we do wrong He loves us and correct us, or should I say repair us, because we break down like cars, and need to go to the shop to get fixed.  Because God gave us a free will we choose to do the things we do.  No one can force you to do anything, you have a choice to do it or not even if it is doing something wrong.

We choose to love each other.
