LOVE

Spreading The Love.
Does that make sense?
I drew a picture a few days ago that pretty much sums up what i'm trying to write, but basically, this is what i'm thinking:

--

What if someone planted a hypothetical seed in your heart. And that person (hypothetically) watered the seed, nourished it, and helped it grow. Soon the seed would grow and grow and after a while that person would be so filled with love that they were ready to plant a seed in someone else's heart. It's not a complicated idea. Showing someone God's love. The person could have the hardest heart in the world, but what if you slowly started showing them you loved them? He would slowly start to appreciate what you were doing, and maybe even open up to you. Soon he would be happy as a clam when you were together, whether it be at church, the neighborhood, school, anywhere. but that love he feels when you are with him wouldn't be stationary. Soon his wearing of several different masks, (one for school, one for family, one for friends) would get old. He can only hide his joy for so long before he wants to go out and spread his love to others! All it took was you, loving one person who needed it. A ripple effect. Be the stone that drops into the water! Be the first wave. Change one person in your life, and he'll be able to change one person in another's.
Spreading The Love.
