God's love is as objective as light. Because the sun in a sense is light, or the source of light rather than being lit, it really gives its light to the earth.

And because we receive real life-changing love from God, we are really transformed from darkness to light.

Love is the very essence of life. It is the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Yet it is more than the end of the rainbow.
