I've been sitting with the idea that love is learned.
Not learned from books or sermons alone, but learned through experience. We know how to love because God loved us first. He showed us what patience looks like. What grace looks like. What forgiveness looks like. What staying looks like.
Sometimes I wonder how much of our love is offered in response and how much is offered in reflection. Are we loving because others have earned it, or because we are carrying the imprint of a God who loved us before we deserved it?
Maybe one of the clearest signs that God's love is taking root in us is that we become less concerned with who deserves our love and more concerned with how faithfully we reflect His. create a visual to go alongside this
