‘What's love got to do, got to do with it?

Who needs a heart when a heart can be broken?’

Allie sings with true emotion. She is portraying the feelings of the original of the realization and fear of being willing to fall in love. At the end of her song, the audience cheers and claps for a song well done. This song reminds us that fear can hold us back from wonderful relationships. Unfortunately, many people allow fear to hold them back from having a relationship with Jesus. May we remember that we can accept the invitation of relationship with Christ, and He never lets us down. His Love has everything to do with it.  

“There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us.” 1 John 4:18-19
