i was wondering

Sometimes I wish that love

was something you could package

into a box and tie it up with a bow

or put it into a card or something like that



Then you could just give it to who ever you wanted

and you would know if they recieved it

and/or if they were impacted by the love

that you gave to them



And sometimes I wonder if the love we gave away is felt

by those we give it to

I wonder if love is understood by those who recieve it

the same way it was meant to be understood by those who give it



Sometimes I sit and think about the love I have recieved

and I wonder if those who gave me that love

know how much I appreciate it.

I wonder if they know how it has brought goodness to my life



Sometimes I wonder if those who make fun of love

know what they are making fun of

do they know what they are missing out on

sometimes I wonder if those who are busy being tough

realize there is nothing tougher than love.

for it conquers everything.



Sometimes I wonder if we know what love is

it is not lust, nor should it be compared to it

for love is what it is

even when we call things that are not love, love

love remains true to itself, for it comes from GOD

who cannot be anything but himself, GOD changes not

love changes not



Sometimes I am glad that love cannot be packed up

and wrapped with a bow

or put into a card.

because love is too big for this.


It was never meant to be contained

but it was meant to be given away

just as much as it was meant to be recieved
