What is Love?

The kind of Christian Love I mean is God, no more no less.  Love means to will the ultimate good of the other.  We will it, we don't impose it.  We will their good, not simply what they want.  I may want to sit at home eating icecream all day but it isn't love to enable that.  Eating icecream isn't evil in its self but enabling disordered eating is not for my good.

Love isn't week.  Love is strong and endures.  Because we can't use force, you can not force Love, we must have the patience of St Monica.  Love is so strong hate breaks itself upon it.  Love makes us strong.
