SEASON OF LOVE.

Love is a language that everybody knows. It makes no difference in the heart of the young or old. It is like a river through your soul. It is a common saying that love can make a wise man look like a fool and it can make a broken heart brand new. There was a girl that was telling me that there was nothing like love while some set of people believe that you can only develop love, you can`t just love for no cause. I went to a girl`s house with a friend and she was narrating a scenario that occurred in their church during a church service. Their pastor told them to tell their neighbour that...I LOVE YOU. The girl said that she was sitting beside a guy who immediately made the statement as if he had a motive in mind. The girl refused to reply the guy because she believed that she cannot love someone she had not met before. What came to my mind was that many had not really understood the concept of the word...LOVE. Love is a very powerful word that does not really count by the mere word expression but by action. God created us in His own image but man went astray but because of His love for us, He redeemed us from destruction by sending His Son; Jesus Christ to die for us and take away our iniquities. What kind of love can be as powerful as that. That is why, He always emphasizes that if you love me, you will do my commandments. We always claim that we love God by our vocal expressions but from our actions, we don`t love God cos we don`t really do His will. The love that He had for us made our sins to be covered. A clear commandment that God has given us as long as we are on earth is to love one another whether good or bad. The greatest commandment that was given by Jesus was for us to love God and our neighbours as ourselves. Nowadays, we limit our love to the people that we know and people that are of great benefit to us. Love does not know whether you are rich or poor, black or white, tall or short etc. God is love. The reason for strife in different places today is due to absence of genuine love which is God. At this point, I will like to ask the married ones this simple question...Do you really love your spouse? This has a lot to do with unconditional love. Love not due to the benefit one is acquiring from the other person. Love needs to exist in every sphere of life for peaceful co-existence to occur. Many of us feel emotional action is an act of love. Some of us mistake lust for love. It is important for us to change our mindset that saying that you love someone does not mean you are lusting after such person. Let us try to love everyone that comes our way. It is not only by statement but by action. Are you lonely, depressed, frustrated, messed-up, battered etc...why not fall into the arms of love. The love that heals, the love that makes broken heart brand new is God`s love. It is not traded for anything as it requires one to just try and be in it and you will never remain the same once you have tasted it. Love your families, friends and foes. Let us try and be in the business of making and not breaking. God loves you and I DO TO. Selah!
