What Love Really Means

I love this song. I really do. I think it is beautifully written and that JJ Heller has an amazing talent. Every time I hear this song I can't help but tear up a little, which I guess isn't saying much since I seem to tear up at anything. But, this song is really beautiful with a very powerful message.

I feel fortunate to have several people in my life who have always "loved me for me." My parents, my grandparents, friends, of course my dear husband, Andy and now I really feel it from my kiddos. Also, I feel like I have always known that God loved me as well. Not to say that I haven't had moments where it seemed like no one loved me, but they are few and far between and they seemed to never last very long. Whenever I felt a moment like this, it wouldn't be long before I would feel my parents loving me, Andy loving me or God loving me. I've been very blessed with loving people in my life that have expressed a very Christ-like love to me.

I am trying to love like this as well knowing my love will never be as perfect as Christ's love for us. I make a real effort to try to love everyone despite what they've done.... it's hard... it's a process, but I am trying. But always know that no matter where you are in life or no matter how unloved or unloveable you feel there is one person that will always love you no matter what... and that is God. Thank God for that!
