What Love Really Is

The LORD saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. The LORD regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. So the LORD said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” But Noah found favor in the eyes of the LORD.   Genesis 6:5-8

some get it,

most don’t,

they think they do,

but they don’t,

their comments and words

give them away,

but it is ok,

most of the time

I don’t get it either,

I just put on a knowing look,

and pretend with all the rest;

it does get hard though,

listening to all the know-it-alls,

all the self-proclaimed experts,

rambling on and on about

this and that,

as you patiently listen, nod

and smile,

all the while wondering,

what you will eat for dinner

when you get home,

or why the One who

does know all,

puts up with the

vanity and hypocrisy,

why He doesn’t just

speak and make it all

go away;

it’s moments like this,

when you realize

what love really is.
