Love is one of the greatest needs that human beings have. Throughout our life process we are always in search of love, whether our parents, children, siblings, couples, friends or family in general, we thrive when we feel that feeling of love with reciprocity, without it people often become depressed, until get sick, and you can even die because of the absence of this comforting and important feeling for everyone.
An act of love is any action that you perform with the purpose of protecting, improving, helping or serving unconditionally any human being, defenseless animal or the nature that surrounds you. It is giving without expecting anything in return, to make your environment a more beautiful place, where peace, love and joy reign.
The greatest act of love was done by God.
"God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten Son, so that everyone who exercises faith in him may not be destroyed, but may have eternal life." Jehovah's motives are summarized in one word: love. Certainly, the gift he gave us when he sent his Son to suffer and die for us was the greatest sign of love of all times.
Matthew5: 43-48
43 "You heard that it was said: 'You must love your neighbor and hate your enemy'.b 44However, I say to you: Continue to love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, d 45 to prove you are sons of his Father who is in heaven, and since he makes his sun rise on the wicked and the good and rains on the righteous and the unjust. 46 For if they love those who love them, what reward do they have? the same thing tax collectors? 47 And if they greet their brothers only, what extraordinary thing do they do? Does not the people of the nations do the same thing? 48 You, in fact, have to be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.
How do we give love ?, easy, let us follow the example of our heavenly father.
Let's do it from the simplest practices, with small acts of love. Below are some of many.
Start being kind and polite, with other people.
Always greeting with kindness and respect, if from your job you have to pay attention to people and every time you enter somewhere, every time you do this, you can improve the day of these people that you attended well and greeted with respect, this simple act is magical in most cases is transmitted from one person to another, becoming a great chain that is what we should seek to encourage to achieve a change in the lives of all.
Shows gestures and sincere acts of love towards others.
Give a sincere compliment to your friends or someone who deserves it, that usually makes them smile contributing to happiness.
Offer your help to those who need it, for example in a public transport to a pregnant woman, an elderly person, disabled people, a mother with her child in her arms, they will show you gratitude and with your act of love you will earn the respect of those who they observe you and try to imitate you when they have the opportunity, this has nothing to do with sex, you can be a man or a woman, we must promote these values that are being lost.
Congratulate those who do things well, that will motivate them to continue improving in what they do.
Give a little of your time to a charity or in an act to raise funds or contributing what you know how to do, if you know of an art, or simply your help for those who need it, this will make you and your you will make many happy.
Prioritize love over hate, envy and evil, the power to love is within you, comes from our heavenly father, who overcomes all evil, every disease, every spirit of filth that wants to invade us.
Give advice to youth through orientation talks, can be in schools, universities, which allows them to focus on something they are doing or are doing wrong and can correct on time.
Promotes the value of respect, which must start from your own being, an authentic and pure respect, only someone who recognizes this value can put it into practice with others, to the extent that we promote a culture of respect we will be contributing to promote love for what we do, tolerance, teamwork, companionship.
Dedicate quality time to children, cultivate love for reading and writing, you can start by reading short Bible stories. Or some story that leaves them a teaching.
Be generous, when you can and have the opportunity, you can donate some resources to those who need it. This act of love is usually more rewarding for the person who gives than for the person who receives it.
If you have a pet, take care of it and protect it as a member of the family,
Take care of and preserve the environment where you live (the space where you live, the waters, the flora, the fauna). Do not throw trash on the street and educate your children with your example.
Cultivate good friends and keep good relations with them, friends represent an important value in the lives of human beings, do not look for them only when you have a problem, communicate with them to know how they are, learn to listen to them, worry also about what it happens to them, that will make you happy and make them happy.
Ephesians 4: 2
With all humility and meekness, bearing with patience one another in love.
When you perform an act of love do it without expecting anything in return, with this action you will realize immediately that inside you begin to experience changes, a profound and indescribable transformations, that positively impacts life, making the true love appear It will take you to find and discover your true inner peace. Once you find it, you will be able to appreciate it, enjoy it, share it and inspire and motivate others so that they too can experience it in their hearts.
1 Corinthians 13: 4-5
Love is suffered, it is benign; love has no envy, love is not boastful, it is not puffed up; he does not do anything wrong, he does not seek his own, he does not get irritated, he does not hold a grudge.
I so know what you're talking about. I think to maintain that love despite all reasons not to is an individual's show of his or her Love Supreme.
