I Love You More
Dr. Jack Graham
PowerPoint Who can understand the human heart? Just about the time you think your heart is full of all the love one life can hold, along comes a little blue-eyed blond boy with freckles sprinkled across his nose. And one of the most phenomenal things happens. Your heart stretches and you love more than you had ever imagined.
I use to hear grandparents say that having grandchildren was one of the most rewarding experiences of a lifetime. Yet nothing prepared me for the feelings I would experience when that little voice would say, "Dee Dee, I love you."
Early in my relationship with my grandson Ian, I sought to establish that special thing that would be "ours." Somehow our little game came about quite by accident. As one does with most infants, we went through the pattern of waving bye-bye and blowing kisses. Then came the day those magic words were spoken and my heart started a new adventure of growth. Ian said, "I love you."
Although I must admit that Ian most likely didn't understand the feeling behind his words, it didn't matter to Dee Dee. The warm, prideful feelings that followed were well worth every moment I had experienced as a mother of three. Long forgotten were the sleepless nights, the diaper routine, and the hours of carpools.

Those Troublesome Questions about Prayer Prayer, Part 2" Adrian Rogers, LOVE WORTH FINDING Today we are taught that love is a feeling, measured in extremes. Love is understood as affection or romance - and in order to be worth the investment, it should be maintained at an emotionally high level. In contrast, the Bible teaches that love is self-giving. "The Truth About Love" Dr. Michael Youssef, LEADING THE WAY
Why is it that we buy into all the images about LOVE which the media portrays? Is it love to walk away from a relationship? Is it love to throw yourself at the newest hot thing in your life? Is it love to be in a relationship for 'what's in it for me'? Is it love to leave your wife and children? Is it really love if you can 'fall out of love'? "Let Love Be Love" Dr. Foley Beach, A WORD FROM THE LORD
What does "I love you" mean? Is love a feeling? God doesn't ask us if we feel like loving. He tells us it's our responsibility to love-a husband is to love his wife. When we obey, the feeling will follow. But if it doesn't, God's agapé love gives even when it gets nothing in return. "Love God's Way: Whatever do you mean, 'I love you'?" Dr. David Jeremiah, TURNING POINT
