"Manipulation is not love - it is a twisted version of a good thing. Love is giving without expecting something in return; it's not giving out of guilt of mixed motives."
"In the end, there are two kinds of true love. There is gentle love and tough love. both are needed for survival. And both are exemplified in God himself. Gentle love is the side of God that sent Jesus to die in our place - it is self-sacrificing and nurturing, a warm and welcoming kind of love. This is the type of love we all crave so desperately."
"Grace is balanced with justice and enforced with tough love."
"What did Jesus mean when He said, 'Love as I have loved you'? He meant love those like Judas who will betray you, love t hose like Peter whose love is imperfect and faltering, and love those like Mary Magdalene who have an ugly past. But even more than that, He meant love unselfishly and unreservedly. Love with reckless abandon."
" Love is always a choice."
