Love
The magic words for a great relationship are, “I love you just the way you are.” (Jonathan Lockwood Huie, author)
When we were going through courtship days, we might have been inclined to use this sentiment. After a few years of marriage, however, we might not be able to say the same thing honestly. In contrast, the beauty of God’s love is that he loves us just as we are, but he isn’t satisfied to leave us there. He wants us to grow in our love relationships.
I pray that your love will overflow more and more, and that you will keep on growing in knowledge and understanding (Philippians 1:9).
