Love Does What Love Does
Love Does What Love Does. Last year I read a great book by Bob Goff… Love Does. Bob tells story after story about the power of love to change people and circumstances. Bob does a wonderful job of showing how something as simple and yet profound as love can change the world around us. While we often use excuses that keep us from action (need for money, need more time or people to help,etc.), Bob Goff reminds us that love can overcome obstacles and take us places we could never imagine.
The song Love Does was recorded (and I believe written) by Brandon Heath, accompanied by a beautifully done video…
I have read and reread the book Love Does several times now and thought I would add my one thought to this wonderful concept… love does. Love acts, love listens, love transforms…. and answers that timeless question, “what does God look like?” (loves does). The Bible tells us that “God is love” (1 John 4:8). Jesus came as “God in the flesh”, and as a follower of Jesus I seek to share Him with others. The most significant way that I/we can share God/Jesus with others is through love. Without getting too philosophical… here is my new song… “Love Does What Love Does“
Love Does What Love Does
Love won’t fail or hesitate, love might bend but it won’t break
But love does, what love does – it changes everything
Love does, love does what nothing else can do,
love does, what love does…you know it’s always true…
Love is something you can know, see it moving to and fro
Love does, what love does… oh the joy it brings
Love does, love does what nothing else can do,
love does, what love does…you know it’s always true…
You can’t sit in your easy chair and tell someone how much you care
there’s always something you can do….
The world will be a better place, if you brighten up the place
showing love through all you say and do
Love is something we sing about, write about and talk about… but ultimately, love does something. What you do and what I do to show love may look different and that’s OK but let’s not just sit here… let’s get up and do something… people are waiting…
