Love = Act of Will
Today was a really really long day. Started off way early with Leader's Retreat at Laguna Golf Resort til now when i just arrived back home! See what public transport do to your time. Still, we gotta appreciate public transport as without it, i do not know how we're going to travel around singapore. (Its weird to know this is coming from me :p)
So why did i start with 'love is an act of will'?
The church has been concentrating on this whole idea of love. Loving others around you the way God loves us. I have to agree many of us do not really do so. This is a tough choice and i believe most wouldn't want to give up getting out of their comfort zone just to love. You see, love is not just a 'feeling' that we experience, rather, true love is sacrificial! The act of Jesus dying on the cross for us is true love and that was an act of will and a sacrificial effort on the part of the Son of God!
So i want to encourage you readers to truly love those around you by 'willing yourself to action'! Its tough because i struggle with that but remember, it is possible. Afterall, action speaks louder than words. (I can't believe i'm saying this!)
However, don't let people use this to take advantage of you. It is just a personal conviction so if it applies to you, apply it!
