We won't be like Jesus if it's more important to us to be like each other. God doesn't compare what he creates.
Bob Goff
Image
But the kind of love that God created and demonstrated is a costly one because it involves sacrifice and presence. It's a love that operates more like a sign language than being spoken outright.
