Love is always due to the Lord first. I have read many pages showing that the genuineness of loving the Lord is revealed by loving the brethren, both near and far. However, those who have written them had learned from God that He is love. God, if we love Him first, makes the world an ...

The Loving Person
He who makes you feel suffocated by his concern for you, do not convince yourself that he loves you. The care of a loving person is quite different; you can truly discern him from the spaces of freedom he shares with you.
Read moreIn Front of a Lover
A friend of mine told me about what happened to him at the entrance of a hospital in Beirut. He wanted to visit a relative of his. The story is for reforming. He said he stood in front of the "information clerk" seeking to inquire in which room his relative was staying. The clerk was ...
