I have seen what real love is- Or at least just a sliver of it's complexity..
But I know because Christ has shown us the way
Has shown us perfect love in its full glory.
I have seen through his acts that love does not see fault,
love sees past sin and failure,
love is not dependent on anything,

Love is unconditional, and it does not change its mind.

I know this because Christ saw our sin, he saw the evil within us,
and yet he did not turn away from us.
He still loved us enough to die for us. He knew who he was saving,
he was not disillusioned into thinking that we were some perfect people,
and he did not/does not expect that of us.
This then is perfect love,
and he calls us to love one another in the same way.
He has helped us to be able to do so by showing us the way first.
So because I see all that, this is how I love you.
I know that you might be skeptical.
That you might doubt that I know what I’m saying,
but I have felt God’s love and mercy for me.
So I can show it to you without a second thought.
Please believe me when I say that NOTHING can keep me from loving you.
Even if you don’t love me back.
This is how God has loved us
And so I love you the same way.
