When most people love, they attempt to love without fear. True love is knowing that the person you adore and love can totally destroy you but chooses not to. True Love is the absence of fear. But how do we learn to love without fear? True enough, we are often defined by the relationships that have destroyed us or those relationships that have helped us grow. But the fact of the matter is we can’t possibly learn to love others if we are afraid to do so. How can we possibly learn to love a new mate if we haven’t learned to accept and love the people in our lives that God joined us with i.e., family. Regardless of how you feel about your family, you can’t control who you were born to!
If you don’t love, you are constantly in fear. Wether its the fear of failing in a new relationship, fear of actually caring enough about someone else to see your own desires falter. If you don’t love, you are only fearing yourself and your own destiny. God is in control and we must submit ourselves to the universe. To love each other and to love the things that God has created. Have you ever took the time to really look at the food before you buy it, or before you eat it? Have you Taken the time to smell the vegetables or smell the fruit to see the manifestations of God’s love? When we take the time away from truly loving our bodies and our minds, we take the process of self-discovery of nature and God’s own creations. There is no way you can love if you have fear. Adversely, there is no way you can be fearful if you have love. The very essence of the word fear is having doubt in your mind.
I remember when I fell in love with Jesus. I remember pouring out my heart and trusting only to him that my life would be different from that point on. That day was the best day of my life! Essentially I had been living my life in fear because I didn’t love God enough to put all my hopes and cares in him. Do you realize there is NOTHING to hard for God? We can’t possibly love God and fear the economy. We can’t love ourselves and fear never getting married. We can’t be afraid of our future if we don’t love.
Although fear is a true human emotion and at some point or another we will all observe the emotion of fear. We must not live our lives in fear. I promise that if you choose to love instead of fear the whole direction of your life will change. Not just love of ourselves but love of the unverse and man kind.
I’m a naturally giving person, I get it from my grandmother, she will give everything to anybody. I really believe she does this because she loves people so much that she chooses to live without fear of how her own things will get taken care of. Now while my grandmother’s approach to things are very radical, I’ve attempted to do the same in a lot of aspect of my life. Even when I was jobless, I still tithed and to this day I have never had a day without food, or gas or anything that I needed. I received most of my wants too because I was faithful enough to live without fear. I love God and have so much faith in him that I will not live my life fearing a job, fearing an income, fearing anything because I chose to love God and trust him. I love God so much that I partake in giving him 10% of my income. Really, all the blessings and sources of income I receive are from God so giving him 10% is NOTHING. Life is the sum of the choices we make, if we choose to love or we choose to fear, life will always go on. So I ask you today, do you choose to fear or Love..
Peace and Blessings
