Sometimes, tuff love will be required. Perhaps, sacrificial love is what will meet need. Holy love may be necessary. Sometimes we are to love as a parent, other times as a child. How do we know when our rightful place should be where? We can only know by listening for and following God, as He is One that sees their heart. And always, above every other form of love, we have to stand for our love for Him.
"Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be epistle of Christ ministered by us,
written not with ink, but with Spirit of living God;
not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of heart."
II Co. 3:2-3
God is love and, however often He requests to live through us, let us give a right answer and say, "Color me love."
