Good Friday

As Romance writers, we often think of love in romantic terms first. Then we might think of parental love, or the love for a pet, or our friends. Every now and again, though, like today, it's good to remember that love has a Source.
Love doesn't exist in a vacuum. Love can't exist in a vacuum. It has to have a reason to exist.
Love is always plural, even when it isn't reciprocated.
Love is risky. Loving someone doesn't always mean they will love you back.
God knew that. Despite everything, and knowing all the risks, He sent His Son to try to love us to Him. Love gave everything, so that we might find Him.



"Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us, and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sin, and not for ours only, but for the sin of the whole world."



This Resurrection Sunday, may you find the Love who gave all on Good Friday.
