God is love. He who loves knows God.

About This Quote

Love is not for everyone. People who do not love and do not know God cannot truly call themselves human. Love is the most powerful force in the universe and without it we would cease to exist. Many people mistakenly believe that love is a feeling that comes and goes and that we only really care about it when we are in love with someone.

But love is not like that. Love is a choice, a decision to see the good of another person even if it means putting your own needs on hold.
