Like and Love

I have been working on this thought for a while and I will continue working on it until I use it next month in a series at Venture on the Lord's Prayer.

The difference between like and love-
You like someone because there are things about them that you enjoy being around (such as a sense of humor, or being a good listener) but when you love someone you want to be around them despite the things about them that you don’t enjoy (ie- stubbornness, inability to replace the toilet paper roll).

What do you think?

First, scripture does not ask us to "like" anyone. Second, the attributes of love (I Cor. 13:4) are all decisions we can make about the way we treat others, whether we "like" them or not.

Like is of the mind. Love is of the heart.
