She says she loves him the way he is. He believes her and acts as himself. She finds out she doesn't really love all that he is, and leaves. What about unconditional love? The love that takes people as they are, with no exceptions. That loves you when you act great and stupid. Serious and silly. A love that doesn't like the sin, but loves the sinner. A love like the love Christ has for us. A love that doesn't give up and never lets you go. A love that doesn't seek what is pleasurable to self. A love that is willing to be inconvenienced, and a love that does indeed take you as you are. What would happen if we loved everyone like this?
