True Love Is Contagious

As I was sitting at my best friends wedding this weekend I couldn't help but smile.  Everyone there was so happy for the couple that was married.  No matter how they personally felt towards marriage, other people, or the couple themselves, every single person there was ecstatic that day.  I realized something then and there at the reception: true love is contagious.  When we see something so pure and real we cannot help but be amazed by it.  Not only are we amazed by it, but we desire it.  How would the lives of those around us changed if we could put on display our true love for God?  Would people be changed?  Is our love for God so pure that other people cannot help but admire and desire it?  My challenge is that if you want to see those people around you changed, what can you do to help them along the way?  Show your love for God through your service and good deeds.  Show your love for God through your interaction with others.  Love your spouse with everything you have.  I promise that if we do then we will change our world and the lives of those around us.
