Real Power
When I think of the word power, images of forceful things like tidal waves, tornados and etc usually come to mind. Power at first glance is typically loud, bold and strong.
But on second thought, the most powerful thing on earth is quite the opposite. Is there any human "power" more powerful than love? I cannot think of one thing more powerful than love.
Love is: Kind, patient, gentle, humble, believing, optimistic, relentless... (1 Cor 13:4-8)
Love can reach, change, heal, forgive, build, grow, fix, transform... And it has. Time and time again.
A whole lot more can be accomplished using the power of love than by any other mechanism.

I like the song "Relentless" from Hillsong United. This chorus often echoes in my mind when thinking about Him.

i have played that song perhaps 50 or 70 times over the months.... Love seems to always be the underlying antidote for everything...
