Love makes the world go round.

This morning in church, as we sang:
"In my life, be lifted high;
In our world, be lifted high;
In our love, be lifted high,"
I thought a little about what this means. God calls His followers to be righteous. Because of this expectation, I may be found to be conservative in my beliefs. "In my life, be lifted high." I was also struck by this passage earlier this morning:
"Love from the center of who you are; don't fake it. Run for dear life from evil; hold on for dear life to good. Be good friends who love deeply; practice playing second fiddle." (Romans 12:9, 10 MSG)
Putting all this together, brought me to the following conclusion:
Although I may be considered conservative in my (Christian) beliefs, may I never be conservative in my LOVE!
