The Weight of True Love ❤️
Love is one of the most overused and misunderstood words in our world. We use it for everything from comfort foods to covenant promises—and somewhere in that tangle of emotions, disappointments, and expectations, the true meaning of love gets lost.
But if we pause long enough to examine it, we begin to see the layers.
Maternal Love, Familial Love… and Obligation
A mother’s love can be fierce and sacrificial. Family love is the bond we’re born into. Yet many people carry deep wounds—abandonment, betrayal, manipulation, or relationships built more on duty than genuine affection. These experiences shape how we define love and what we think we deserve.
Camaraderie, Friendship, and “Besties”
Friendship is precious—laughter, shared history, the comfort of being known. But friendships can fracture, fade, or prove conditional. We all know the ache of someone who promised to stay… and didn’t.
Lust and Romance
Romance is powerful and intoxicating, but it is often confused with infatuation or need. It can be beautiful, but it can also be fragile, temporary, and centered on emotions that shift like sand.
These are all forms of human love—real, but imperfect. And in a world soaked with selfishness, abuse, cruelty, and spiritual darkness, many people stop trusting love altogether. They’ve been hurt too deeply. Manipulated too often. Disappointed too many times.
So when they hear about God’s love, they compare it to the broken love they’ve known… and they struggle to believe it.
But Agape is different.

Agape: The Highest Form of Love
Agape is not desire.
It is not emotion.
It is not obligation.
Agape is God’s perfect, unstoppable, self-sacrificing love for humanity.
It is steadfast.
Unchanging.
Not dependent on our worthiness.
Not withheld when we fail.
And Agape was not proven in a poem or a feeling.
It was proven in blood.
