love.

unconditional love is one of the best gifts God has given us. it's a challenge to reciprocate the sort of love to people (spouse, parents, family, friends, coworkers) sometimes (mostly because of your own selfishness, stubbornness & sin), but when you remember how Jesus loves you, even when you're being a real turd, it's not so bad. we are called to live like Him, so it makes it quite a bit easier to swallow your pride... and it is so rewarding.

i encourage you to try & live more & more like Jesus everyday. loving unconditionally is just one thing we're called to do! feel free to share some encouragement of your own below!

xxoo,
