"...Only a life contemplating the love of Christ becomes a life acting the love of Christ..."
This phrase stuck out to me tonight as I was reading Ann Voskamp's article on radical Christianity. That's truly it - we can only really love, when we realize how much we have been loved.
So, go on over, and read her article about being love to the people God puts in your everyday life - it's so amazing!
P.S. If you haven't read her book One Thousand Gifts, please, do! It's challenging and inspiring, and a guide to living in joy and gratitude.
