What is Agape Love & What Does it Mean for Us Today?

there are so many different kinds of LOVE but Agape ... is the highest there is Familial, Eros, and Philia_ and there is healing "Agape" in forgiving and kindness to all who have hurt us ... ~ in my HEART I will only hold serenity and in my soul will dwell COURAGE to follow my path and only tranquility will leave my lips ~ I hear the WHISPERING ... of the Lord he tells me to have faith and hope and to live in grace to keep peace within me always and to seek to do the right thing for the Lord is Agape ... ~ it is vast and infinite and eternal filling me with INSPIRATION and fathomless strength and in PRAYERS I ask for the Lords blessing ~ REFLECTING on my life thus far I hold close my Familial ... my FAMILY and though they dwell above now- they are with me oh, I have known Eros romance and lust I have been PASSIONATE and been desired and been blessed with Philia ... friendships unconditional and in the Lord found my HOME... ~ the Agape within in me is limitless and pure I welcome the lost and help with kindness the found I listen and respect with selfless caring ~ but, I have one question Lord the unconditional feelings I hold for each pet I have had and the way they accept me with no rules or reason is this your divine Agape ? ___________________ April 18, 2021 Poetry/Free Verse/love will heal the world Copyright Protected, ID 04-1347-915-18 All Rights Reserved, 2021, Constance La France Written for the Premier contest, Agape Sponsor, Regina McIntosh, Judged 05/05/2021 Third Place

Connie, thank you for the compliment, I have pondered this unconditional love of animals and it has no other name than Agape, my kitty Snuggles was the kitten of a barn cat and there is a wildness in her that will never leave and I love her for that, but there is a barrier I must never cross with her as she will bite and use her claws (for now, anyways) love _Constance

Exquisite writing with equally fine presentation. I love the way you worked in the requisite words. It's not easy to do effectively, but you have done so. Good luck in the contest, Constance.
