Life's journey with purpose

Life is about learning to love.

Sounds good. Can a person learn to love? Depends on one's definition of love.
Is there a universal, unchanging definition for love? Or are we left to our own finite understanding?

As always, if society creates standards based on our whims and wants a slippery slope is created and definitions change based our mood or situation. Where do we find true love?

Life is all about love and relationships - with God and others.

God has told us and showed us how to love through Jesus.

Learning to love is life's most important lesson.

Jesus called it the "greatest commandement" (Matthew 11:28)

Love God, and then love others. Love God first. When we learn who God is and what he says love is, then we learn how to love others the way it was inteneded.
