"I don't need her love to love her all I can." --Andrew Peterson

"God's like an ice cream shop." --Alicia D. Garcia

"Oh, I look good there; I look like a monkey." --Tara Walker

"I will most gladly spend and be expended for your souls. If I love you more, am I to be loved less?" --2 Corinthians 12:15
I especially love this verse. It means so, so much to me. I mean, think about it...if a cup of water is poured out into another, then it becomes empty. But what if it is also constantly being poured into? That's the idea he's getting to. He's saying it's ridiculous to think that he could lose God's love, ever, especially just because he loved others MORE. God is continuing to LAVISH His love upon us, and so we have a constant supply that we may pour ourselves out! If we are full to the point of overflowing...WHY NOT pour as much out as possible upon those who need love most? like, try the entire world?? We could all use it.

We could all learn a little bit more about what it means to "most gladly spend and be expended for your souls."
