Verb or Noun?

Posted on June 14, 2016 by mitchteemley

Some things can be both a verb and a noun (fish, call, ride). But I only know of one thing that must be a verb before it can be a noun: Love.

    Sharing this with my daughter. She is a writer, a “word nerd,” a thinker and a feeler. She’s pretty awesome, and I’m not just saying that because I’m her mom. She’ll appreciate this immensely. <3

    Was just talking about ‘a liitle help is worth a lot of pity’ before I came on this gem of yours.

    Our church has a sermon series this month on love. I’ll have to share this one with our pastor. It fits right in with the idea that God is love, but that He showed His love at the cross. We didn’t even know what love (as a noun) was until He demonstrated it (as a verb) by dying for us.
