All trees come in genus and species. The genus being the family and the species being the individual variety. While all of the trees in a given family have some similar characteristic that binds them, the individual species offers a more individual appeal. Some more common examples would be the various types of Pine trees, Maple trees, etc.
As in the variations of the tree, Love also has it’s own variations of the common thread, as explained in this way:
If Love were an Oak
Northern Red Oak might be the Love you have for your Father
Gambel Oak could be the Love for a Son
Oregon White Oak might represent the Love you have for your Wife
Live Oak, or Bur Oak could be the Love for a Best Friend
And, so on.
Love for God, in whatever way you see Him would be represented by Oaks, in general, and therefore much grander than the individual.
