By Jabari Bovell – When most teens think about love, they think about crushes, relationships, or strong emotions. But faith shows us that love is more than a feeling; it’s a choice and a way of life. The Bible says, “We love because He first loved us” (1 John 4:19). That means our value doesn’t come from others’ opinions, but from God. God’s love reminds us that we don’t have to earn worth or acceptance. We are already loved. When we understand that, it changes how we see ourselves and how we treat others. Love becomes patient, kind, and forgiving, even when it’s hard. Faith-based love shows in our actions, how we treat friends, how we forgive, and how we respect boundaries in relationships. Real love doesn’t pressure, use, or hurt others. It reflects Christ by choosing kindness, truth, and selflessness every day. True love starts with God and flows through us.
