Genuine Love

I've been reading on Sojourners site a bit and came across this quote ... and I love it!

Genuine Christian love is forged against the anvil of our selfishness and possessiveness. It is important to remember that love is more than a feeling. It is active and transitive. The real test of my loving is not that I feel loving, but that the other person feels loved by me. Love is what I do to create this sense of feeling cared for.
