Hawk Nelson - Crazy Love

Here's the first song in my 'love' series. The first aspect of love I want to touch on? Love doesn't have bias, nor does it play favorites. We're called to love everyone around us, regardless of who they are. That includes our enemies too. Jesus told us to love our enemies and to pray for the people that persecute us. It's not an easy thing to do, but love isn't supposed to be easy all the time.

John 15:13 says, "Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends." And 1 John 3:16 a says, "Hereby know we love, because he laid down his life for us..." If we are to follow in Christ's example, we should practice the kind of love that sacrifices our own wants and needs for those of people around us. The world sees this as foolishness, but that's what crazy love really means. It's much more than what you see in today's media.
