Personal mode of Transportation...
So many times on my way to and or from work, I use public vehicles. In Uganda, the public vehicles are uniform in one way or the other, they are 14 seater and have a "T" trademark engraved around the driver's door. This uniformity goes on. These mini buses have loud speakers echo out all varieties of music from all sorts of radio stations. Recently, while comfortably seated in one of the many taxis I have used since the year began and struggling not to listen yet the volume of the speakers at their maximum the song "LOVE IS WICKED" played on and on. I was disturbed by the lyrics of the song but the only consolation I had was the verses that rang in mind over and over again.
LOVE IS WICKED, is this the true meaning of LOVE? I don't think so, Let us not allow the world to redefine beautiful issues for us.
True definition of Love...
1 Corinthians 13:4 - 8b
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.
And this is love expressed...
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
