Show love with actions

Dear Pastor,

True love does exist, and it is not a temporary madness, nor is it saying "I love you" every day. It is in the action. Just as First John 3:18 says "Dear children, let us not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth."

I see a simple act of true love from my husband. When I jump up from a bad dream, he will calm me down until I go back to sleep. Keep up the good work.

C.J.

Dear C.J.,

It is true; love is demonstrated by action. When a couple says to each other, "Darling, I love you", they show by their actions what they really mean. If no actions follows the words, they are lying. Such love is meaningless.

Pastor.
