"God so loved the world He gave His only Son..."

but how much do i love the world?
what would i give so the world could know the love of Father?
what would i give so the world would have a chance to know His love, but with no guarantee that they would ever accept Him?


i don't think it's enough to only love Christ. it doesn't seem to have been enough for Father.
His love had to overflow somewhere...

in the beginning
of this overflow God created...
sky
wind
waves
seeds
dna
souls
us.

Agape love is to great to keep within one relationship.
it grows, expands, pours out and splashes over anyone standing near it.


this love is found in the difference between two families.
the first family had such great love for each other they decided to dedicate one night each week to "family time." on this night the phone was shut off, the televisions and computers were unplugged and the door was locked so the family could enjoy uninterrupted quality time together.
the second family also had great love for each other and decided to dedicate one night each week to "family time." on this night extra chairs were placed around the table, a large meal was cooked and the front doors and windows were flung open, inviting people in.
which family had more love?
