In the midst of a busy day, it is easy to get side-tracked and forget what is most important. Relationships are not just an important part of your life, they are your life. The Apostle Paul wrote in the Bible (1 Corinthians 14:1) “Let love be your highest goal…”
If love is your highest goal, is it reflected in your daily priorities? If someone were to follow you around for one week, would they see it in how you spend your time? Are you spending plenty of time with those you love? Do you find yourself laughing with them? Are you speaking words of encouragement to them?
The following are some of my favorite quotes about love:
“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”
-Lau Tzu

“The ultimate lesson all of us have to learn is unconditional love, which includes not only others but ourselves as well.”

“In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love.”
