What is true love?

This week in class we have been talking about what true love is . I asked my kids what love was and of course they started saying how it was yucky and automatically went into a typical third grade response when anyone mentions anything about love. Then we read Matthew 5:44 and we looked at an example of true love. Matthew 5:44 talks about loving your enemy and praying for those who persecute you. We talked about how true love is having a right attitude about doing things too. We read I Corinthians 13 and we looked at how love always or love never but it never says love sometimes. I believe you either have true love or you don't there is no in between. On Wednesday we were sitting in an all school anti bullying chapel and there was a skit and after the skit when they were talking about it one of my students leaned over to me and said that was not showing true love. That student really got what true love is. This next week in class we are going to start preparing for chapel and our chapel is going to be on true love how God sees us and that He is the ultimate example of true love.

So I am excited I am getting a new student this coming Monday. So I am back up to 15. I know my class will be awesome at welcoming him.
