Shameful! This little girl is being an awesome friend by supporting her friend who is suffering from Cancer. She is true friend is this is a demonstration of what love is. Love is sacrificial. Two brave young ladies. May God bring healing on your friend Delaney. Here is a section that I took from a Focus on the Family article and modified slightly: Credits to Matthew J. White for his original Article, which relates specifically to marriage but the message can be applied elsewhere (focusonthefamily/marriage/gods_design_for_marriage/does_your_spouse_see_jesus_in_you/sacrificial_love.aspx) Love can be defined in many ways. Christs love for us is an unconditional love. This is Agape Love. The Greek word for this sacrificial love is agape. I like this definition of agape love: Unconditional love that is always giving and impossible to take or be a taker. It devotes total commitment to seek your highest best no matter how anyone may respond. This form of love is totally selfless and does not change whether the love given is returned or not. That definition came from: (God is Agape Love ezilon/articles/articles/7675/1/God-is-Agape-Love) Jesus doesnt expect anything in return. He loves me when I speak to Him daily, spend time in His Word and help an elderly person cross the street. But, He also loves me when I respond with a harsh tone to someone, yell at the person who cut me off and dont feel like going to church on Sunday morning. His love is unconditional and is there even when I screw up. Thank you Jesus for your mercy and grace! John 15:13 Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. A Proverb from the Igala people from Nigeria in Africa says: One who stays in the shade does not know the suns heat. Romans 15:1-3 We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves. 2 Each of us should please our neighbors for their good, to build them up. 3 For even Christ did not please himself but, as it is written: “The insults of those who insult you have fallen on me.”
