New thoughts on love.

When others give up, love cannot.

Love gets through the locked door, and refuses to leave until you are able to be alone.

Love may not be where we expect to find it and may look different than we expect it to, but that doesn't make it any less love than that which we hope for.

Love makes all things beautiful and stirs to life things once believed dead.

Love will go where it is not always welcomed, it will do what some consider to be beneath them. It picks up, cleans up, gets up and stays up, even late into the night. Love will be uncomfortable. It will cry with the broken and laugh with the joyful.

Sometimes it speaks out loudly, at other times it whispers, and occasionally it says nothing at all.

Love prays sacrificially, expecting nothing in return, and doesn't stop praying even when the words are all gone.

Love hopes and yet still lives with the reality of today.

Love continues when others turn back.

Love brings a mop.
