how do you measure love? (if you have thoughts on this, please share! haha) this question randomly popped up in my head as i read some blogs and came across the idea of lavishing someone with love-

“Lavish” also became my word of the week, the word written on my palm as a constant reminder of the grace God has lavished me with as well as a reminder to lavish my children with love.

to lavish with love brings across an idea so rich, so deep, so beautiful. the love of Christ that passes understanding - Christ came and demonstrated His love. He did it with gentle words of encouragement and stern words of rebuke. but above all of that He showed His love through His actions. by washing the feet of His disciples, by speaking with those who were despised and rejected, by suffering silently in prayer, and finally, through the Cross.

and i asked myself, how do i give my love? and i know ive got such a long way to go. haha. but with Christ, there's always a promised victory! (:
