Love doesn't suck

I had a conversation tonight about how one person believes "Love Sucks" and was not willing to accept that Love itself did not do the "sucking" instead the negative outcome of the situation sucked. Funny how I listen to people like myself that admit to seeing it for what it really is, but ignored the signs in hopes of love fixing all. Love is powerful and we are encouraged to walk in a Jesus like love, but even Jesus loves us just as we are. Total acceptance of us right now in whatever our current circumstance; be it drug addiction, sex addiction, liars, poor parenting skills or just plain ole' greedy and selfish we are instructed to come as we are. If we waited for someone to love us once we had it all fixed this would be a heartless world. His belief that love now sucks is believing all the lies he was told by his bad situation. Instead of viewing it with God's eyes that even the person telling the lies needed his love the most. I guess my hope is that we all learn that it may suck to be hurt by someone you love, but we must not let them escape with our love. We will need it to share with the next person!
