Lord, I Would Follow Thee

When the song says, "Savior may I Love my brother as I know thou loves me, find in thee my strength my beacon for thy servant I would be," it makes me want to reflect on how the Savior actually loves me:

*always, no matter what, probably more when I am obedient (but is that only His right? So, am I supposed to love unconditionally?), regardless of my weaknesses, or my past, without holding anything over my head, not just to see what I am going to do about it, not to test me, knowing all my strengths and needs and feelings, with understanding, righteously, not in an enabling way, still gives consequences for my actions 

In studying the parable of the talents, I learned that the talents I have been given are the Lord's. And I am capable of things that others aren't. And I will be judged accdg to how I use or don't use these talents. I am capable of loving a certain amount, and if I don't love to that amount, then I am an unprofitable servant.
