Well, as you can see I'm still on this thing with love. So many times we hear from people who don't want to become Christians because of how Christians act. Now I want to tell them to quit looking at us and instead for them to look at Christ. But we told that others will know we are followers of Christ because of our love. So, I think about do I show others, including my family, the love of Christ?
In todays Meadville Tribune there is an article about a young man who was suspended from college because of being an actor in gay porn movies. The college, Grove City, is a Christian college and those who attend there know that. So, I agree that some action needs to be taken. I just pray for the people involved. That they will show true Christian love in there disciplinary action.
As for showing love to others, I truly believe that it's the only way others will want to know Jesus. They aren't going to find Him attractive because we go to church, or read our bibles. And it truly saddens me when my own human-ness (did I spell that right?) gets in the way.

Below are some quotes
from Mother Teresa ,
which seem to be good examples
of Christain love.
"Spread love everywhere you go.
First of all in your own house:
Give love to your children, to your wife or husband,
to a next door neighbor.
Let no one ever come to you without leaving better and happier.
Be the living expression
of God's kindness;
kindness in your face,
kindness in your eyes,
kindness in your smile,
kindness in your warm greeting."
"If you judge people,
you will have no time to love them."
"In this life
we cannot do many great things,
but we can do small things
with great love."
"Yesterday is gone.
Tomorrow has not yet come.
But we do have today.
Let us begin" – Mother Teresa
