Love?

I have feelings too. I am human. All I want is to be loved for myself. (Marilyn Monroe, late movie star)

This is the lament of a woman who attained stardom in the entertainment world and was idolized by millions. Such adulation, however, did not fill the void in her life. In spite of—and maybe because of—her films that were all about a mistaken understanding of love, she missed what genuine love could give her. We would all do well to focus on that God-given love that satisfies.

Nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:39)
