I LOVE YOU 🤟

-

 



I love you! 

Not because I'm looking to be loved or I feel unloved.

I love you... I love you.

Not to be treated as a queen and doted upon.

I love you not because I can't find love.

I love you not because you are willing.

I love you because I once felt alone,

despite the people that surrounded me.

I love you because I once felt unloved despite the words of affirmation I received.

I love you because of the love I began to experience and feel once I knew what it meant to love.


I love you because love showed me, love.

And in love, I learned to love

It broke the walls that I had erected around me to protect myself and showed me another way to feel safe.

Another kind of protection.

I didn't know I could be protected in the warm embrace of love.

I didn't know I would find strength in love.

I didn't know that through love I would find myself.

But I did and because of that, I love you.

Because by accepting love,

love personified,

love from Christ,

Agape love.


I knew what it meant to be loved and to love.

And by knowing, I opened the door to loving myself and others.

Not the selfish kind but the selfless kind.

The one Christ showed me.

I love you because even in my state of loneliness and bitterness 

I felt the arms of love around me, holding me tight til I was okay.

Till I found a way out of my turmoil of insanity and lack thereof.


I love you because by learning to accept love, I learned to accept me, and now I have so much love that all I know to do is to give that love to you.

Without love I am nothing

My purpose is pointless

My existence is wasted

So I love you

I love you 

I love you.

And maybe one day you will learn to love someone else just as much as I love you and Christ has always loved you.

I love you

Because you are deserving of love and I have so much of it to give.

God's Magnificent Love towards us

-

I think 🤔 one of the most important things I have learnt in life is God's magnificent love towards us.  I don't mean feeling or knowing He loves us, but understanding and having knowledge of His love towards us.  I have always struggled with faith and struggled with accepting where I am and where God has taken me.   I have always complained about this and that, never satisfied with what I have and what God has given me. Never wondering if there are lessons to be learned in all these and reasons for God doing what He is doing. Nevertheless,  when I began to gain knowledge and understanding of God's love, it led me to a better understanding of faith and who God is. I mean His love is so pure and so true that His thoughts towards us are of good not of evil to bring us to an expected end!  EXPECTED NOT UNEXPECTED! Meaning an end that is going to happen. When we have an understanding and knowledge of the love God has for us, we can trust Him and have complete faith in Him. He l

The Principle of Free Will and The Invincible Forces That Govern This World

-
Last year on this blog, I wrote about the fault being in us and not in our stars and how our actions are a ripple effect that governs the things that will eventually take place in our lives. I spoke on the principle of sowing and reaping. However, since then, I have come to realize that there is much more to life than us and the decisions we make. Whether we choose to believe it, we do not govern ourselves. There is a reason why the bible states that the whole world lies under the influence of the evil one. Ephesians 2:1-3 states that  God quickened us, who were dead in trespasses and sins; Wherein in time past, we walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. As you can see, free will

Nothing is Private anymore

Nothing is private anymore. We are all trying to catch some attention, so we do all that we can do to get it. We capture all that we can capture, to get the attention we desire,  and call it fame.  Fame or being liked? Then we pretend to look perplexed and taken off guard and say it is life. Nothing seems private anymore. Privacy is a thing of the past.  An old word for an old world. Nothing is private anymore. We want to be known… known for something.  Whatever it may be to make that little money or rather just be noticed. For our opinions to be heard, or so we say to ourselves. So we try to come up with new ways of doing things, whether they may be intelligent or daft. We just want to be recognized for whatever. We are all looking for an easy way out.  To inspire and be poetic in whichever way we can. But when we try, we find that it's difficult to attain.  And authenticity is a price that not everyone can afford. So we do anything we can to attain it. Forgetting who we are and t
