Love Is not an emotion................... Philippines

Whatever it is as long as there is love then I do agree..;)) I cant contest when love is involve.:))

Love is best seen as devotion and action, not an emotion. Love is not exclusively based on how we feel. Certainly our emotions are involved, but they cannot be our only criteria for love. True devotion will always lead to action true love.

Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with ACTIONS and in truth.
I John 3:18 (NIV)

Christ was devoted to us enough to give his own life for us (Romans 5:8), even when he didn't feel like it (Matthew 26:39).

Sex is not love! Our culture has taught us that sex and love are one in the same. This is a lie. Sex is a beautiful God-given activity that is wonderful when practiced within the boundaries of a Biblical marriage. Sex is the completion of the binding of two people within Biblical marriage; it is a God-given gift.

PRE-MARITAL SEX

Because premarital sex is not love, it only leads to pain and disappointment for those who are seeking that love. The Bible says that when two people are married, they become one flesh (Ephesians 5:31). Sex is consummation of that union. When two people break off their relationship after having sex, it is like ripping apart flesh. This is why two teenagers will struggle so much and become so dependent on those they give their bodies to. In light of I Corinthians 13:4-8 (above), it is easy to see that premarital sex is not patient, it is not kind, it does not protect, it is self-seeking. It is not love!

IDENTIFYING TRUE LOVE

We can only identify true love and know when we have found it, based on the Word of God. When we match our relationships up to what the Bible says that love is and we are honestly prepared to make a life-long commitment to that person then we can say that we are truly in love. The three keys to that statement are:

We have to

look at the Word of God
be completely honest with ourselves
understand the level of commitment that comes with true love

"In the words of a broken heart
It's just emotion that's taken me over"

nabasa ko mga quotations ang galing! yup tama love is an act not an emotion pero i think it applies most if you're not truly in love with the person kasi how can you give what you don't have? how can you love the person without feeling love itself.. sabi sa quotation, love is defined in many ways but they aren't necessarily contained in love.. so ibig sabihin love is still an emotion.. may levels nga lang ito.. like kung hanggang anong extent mo kayang magmahal ng isang tao.. pero yung true love is feeling it and doing it at the same time.. kasi you can always fake love.. you can utter the words i love you without even feeling it. true love is what defines love.

of course all the emotions are also there in true love :) and since its the romance is enjoyable what the heck :))

love is unconditional.

agape, wow divine love, di ko ata kaya yon without God's help

di po talaga natin kaya kung tayo lang..by the grace of God we can love unconditionally.

ah kaya pala madaming nacoconfuse sa love at infatuation..

tama love is freely given, hindi mo ma-force ang love.. although the means does not always justify the end...

I think LOVE is a strong feeling of emotion, an emotion that is sometimes so uncontrollable. On the other hand, when you found TRUE LOVE it is an action because ... you will choose to do the correct action for the sake of your love one no matter how much it hurts you emotionally.

Nice one, sir. Thanks for the generous share. :)
