Publisher’s Points to Ponder: Love is a Verb
A friend stopped by my office and brought me some homemade dark chocolate fudge with coconut and honey. Hmmm, so good. Her gesture made me think about the love my Olney friends have expressed to me since I’ve been here. I can’t name everyone who has lifted my spirits, but you all know who you are. My friends come through when I need them the most—especially when I was sick with “the illness that shall not be named.” Thinking about their expressions of love made me think about John Mayer’s song “Love is a Verb.” While many of us believe that when we tell people “we love them,” our words qualify as an expression of love. However, we can’t truly express our love by saying, “I love you.” Instead, we define our love by what we do.
