Love is so far away

In a person’s eyes you see no love – just pain, sorrow, and a distant gaze. Their actions are self-centered. Eager to attack when betrayed but never willing to forgive.

I’m so in to you but love is still in need of love today.  Bitterness and vindictiveness plagues the mind.

Selfishness, pride, and ego invade Love’s place in the heart and it Edges God Out.

Love is far away.

Practice Love

In Corinthians Paul speaks of Love and how the church [we the people] should practice love. It is patient, kind, enduring and not boastful.  Contrary to the bible’s blueprint, society is selfish and self-centered – me, myself and I.  

On Main Street America, a tattered homeless person can cause heads to drop or people change their direction. Tears shed when disaster is broadcasted on the airwaves yet people find excuses why not to help.  Where is the Love?

Afraid to share love

Why are people afraid to share love? God’s word tells us to have compassion. Love your neighbor as yourself. But how can we when no one knows their neighbors?  Love is so far away. Love is in need of love today.

There is self inflecting hate among people making it almost impossible to love a neighbor let alone yourself. As Christians, when love is expressed by its true meaning it can ease the pain of whatever you are encountering. It bears, believes, hopes, and endures all things. Love never fails. It conquers all – literally. 

 Love Traits

In order to become more like Christ, we need to practice these “Love Traits.”

• Love: is kind
• Love: does not envy
• Love: is not puffed up
• Love: is not rude
• Love: does not seek its own
• Love: does not rejoice in iniquity

So this is the message: Love one another. Anyone who cannot love remains in death. Brothers and sister let us not just love with words or speech make sure you love with action and truth because love is still so far away.

Prayer

Dear God, your son Jesus Christ is the perfect love. He loved us so much he laid his life down and died for us.  Father fill this vessel with your unconditional love. Teach me your truths and lead me to perfect love in Jesus name.  Amen.

Good Morning! - Love

PGood Morning!

LUV is patient,

LUV is kind.

Tell someone U LUV them!

Happy Valantine's Day

What is Love?

 

 

 

Let us not love in word, neither in tongue, but in deed and truth      I John 3:18

 

 

I LOVE YOU, three words that are timeworn since the beginning of mankind. These unmistakable yet powerful words render affection in poems, sonnets, songs, and movies. Kings, Queens, and common people have uttered many variations world-wide.


The aforementioned scripture was chosen because today is Valentine’s Day. The true meaning of LOVE has been lost  in candy, flowers, and spontaneous dialogue - Only reacting to the day opposed to speaking from the heart. LOVE is not just a word to describe your feelings but it exemplifies a deed; something that requires action.

 

• LOVE  is unconditional - through thick, thin, hard or bad times I choose you to love!
• LOVE is patient and kind
• LOVE does not delight in evil
• LOVE never fails - 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
• True LOVE should originate from one source - LOVE is God I John 4:7.

Unconditional LOVE is a verb - an action word. It is parents sacrificing their needs for the well being of a child, caring for ill loved ones in spite of everything. This LOVE  is demonstrated in marriage when couples console one another or by doing little ‘nothings’ - pick up a rose on the way home just because, leaving love notes stating how you care (this goes both ways). Being able to talk through disagreements and never loose the feeling for your spouse.
 

 A distinctive brand of LOVE is exhibited when Christians help people who have fallen or encountered set-backs. Tending to the needs of strangers or homeless who are down trodden. They over looked rancid conditions but through compassion extend the hand of LOVE. Jesus epitomizes this type of LOVE: Verily I say unto you, in as much as you have done it unto one of the least of these brethren you have done it unto me. Mathew 26: 34-46

 True LOVEcannot be found unless you have God in you life; a man who says he loves God and does not love his brother is a liar, he that does not love his brother who he can see, how can he love God that he has not seen? I John 4:20. On this day of love I pose these questions to ponder:

• Do you LOVE your spouse?
• Do you LOVE your fellow brother?
• Do you LOVE yourself? 

Find True LOVE through God and increase your blessings!

Happy Valentine's Day!

 

Father God in Heaven,

 You asked us to love one another as we love ourselves. Many find it hard to love themselves let alone another person. Lord, in the name of Jesus I ask that you will touch your children who are trying to love but don’t know how. Prick harden hearts so your love can seep in.  I pray in the name of Jesus that you show true Godly love. Help us to grow more in  unconditional love. Your word states, “ask and it shall be done”, I pray Lord that this prayer will be the beginning of healing and removing broken hearts, barriers to allow love in to your children’s lives and allow people to once again trust in the name of Jesus. These things I pray in the name of Jesus and know that it shall be done! Amen.

 Tigner J.
