"A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another."
- John 13:34 (KJV)
That probably looks pretty familiar to a number of you out there, and I suppose the question is where am I going with this whole thing? Which is a legitimate question. For those of you that are familiar with it, I'm sure you have heard a number of lessons and sermons on how we ought to love one another, how we are to love as Christ loved us, how Christ has loved us, etc... So I don't know that I'm going to say anything mind-shatteringly new. I'm probably not actually. But it doesn't have to be something new to be something important. I suppose in some sense what I am discussing is "how" one loves another, but I don't want to approach it in the sense of something like The Five Love Languages by Dr. Gary Chapman. I kind of just grant that everyone needs/desires to be loved differently, which naturally leads us to the conclusion that we are to love each person differently. I suppose this gets kind of confusing at times because we so often attempt to quantify love, but just because the treatment is different is not indicative of a different "amount" of love. That's not really what I want to talk about either though. I suppose at this point I'm just kind of rambling. The aspect of love that I wish to discuss here, is the aspect of time.
