LOVE is one of the most used words and one of the least understood words.

At least I think so.

What do we really mean, when we say that we love someone?

How do we define love?

Love is not obligatory. We are commanded to love.

The first and greatest commandment:

Matthew 22:37

The Lord Jesus Christ commanded to love the Lord our God. He commanded to love with all our heart, with all our soul and with all our mind.

And the second is like it:

Matthew 22:39

The Lord Jesus Christ commanded also to love our neighbor as ourself.

At the present time I am reading the book RENEWED DAY BY DAY,  a daily devotional, by A. W. Tozer and I am learning more about love.

A. W. Tozer says that we can describe love, but we cannot define love. He says “that love can only be understood by the feeling of it.”

He says also that the love of God “can never be explained by the intellect and can only be known by the heart, the innermost being.”
