The title of this blog might sound a bit overused; it's a phrase we see all the time on our social media feeds, hear on podcasts, and in just about any Christian content we consume. But the truth is, God is the same yesterday, today, and forever, and we can't overlook what's written: "Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things." (1 Corinthians 13:7).

What I want to share with you today is my personal experience. It can be easy to throw a verse at someone, saying that love can do all things, but honestly, it can sometimes feel a bit off-putting. That's because, sometimes (not always), we might skip over the whole empathy thing.

Christ has shown me that getting to the point where love "endures all things" is a journey—it's not a one-and-done deal. It's a process of renewing our minds and transforming our hearts to His image. It's like a blooming garden, just as it was in the beginning in Eden. The kind of love that can do all things doesn't judge, loves without measure, and forgives without limit. Up to now, I know only one person who truly embodies this kind of love: yes, it's Jesus.

The most amazing part is that Christ left us His Spirit to guide us: "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you" (John 14:26). As love begins to blossom in our hearts, it's crucial to nurture that garden God has been cultivating. We want to keep it flourishing, making it a place where butterflies can land and thrive. This brings to mind the verse: "Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it spring the issues of life" (Proverbs 4:23).

This is the inspiration behind our 'Love Blooming' cushion. It's a reminder that Christ is growing His love in us, and we also have a part to play in taking care of it and cherishing it as the most precious gift God has given us.
