Open Yourself To Love!

There are times in life when we are afraid to love, because we think it might make us vunerable to manaipulation and/or open us to the danger of having our life screwed up in some way. This fear is the exact opposite of what love is all about. It is in our receiving and sharing of love that our created purpose is fulfilled and our life is opened up for blessings and growth.

“There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.” -1 John 4:18

By throwing open the doors, opening the windows and tearing down the self errected walls of our lives, we make ourselves available to really living. Anything less is a lie, a watered down version of the truth we were created in and for. The objective of this human experience is to discover our true self and reveal that self to others so they may experience blessings and grow along side of us.

A seed grows best in tender soil, so we need to take on and take out the hardness that is caused by the constant misfeeding of our ego. Often in our effort to defend ourselves, we reveal our real weakness and open our life to the attacks that can take us down and out, if not dealt with properly.

Strength that is controlled, directed and focused is greater than strength that is unbridled, wild and distracted. We have unlimited supernatural power, but we limit often thend to limit it with our unbelief, lack of discipline and unwillingness to control our thoughts.

Identify and begin to remove the walls you have errected for your protection, because they are doing more harm than good. Get rid of the barriers that get in the way of the free flow of love into and out of your life. Take on and take out fear and any sources that feed and grow it in your day to day operations. Open your heart, mind and life to give and receive, just as your Creator God gives and receives.

When you open yourself to receive God and His love, God and His love fill you to overflowing with the supernatural power and unlimited blessing of creation, which grows real peace in all that you do…

Love Is The Goal!

Love is a small little word with a big meaning. It’s one of those little words that gets thrown around and used in a lot of different ways. Someone may say that they love this or that person and then turn around and say they love pepperoni pizza. And while I hear what they are saying and can toally relate, the love for a person and the love for a food item are surely on totally different levels???

The Greeks solved this problem by having different words for different kinds of love. Agape was a Godly love, the kind that a Creator would have for His creation. Phila is a brotherly love and where Philadelphia the city of brotherly love gets its name from. This is a love shared between friends. Storge is a familial love or an affection that is shared among family. Eros is a sensual love, where we get our word erotic from and is represnetative of affecction shared for a lover.

“And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.” -1 John 4:16

We were created in Agape Love, for Agape love, so that we might learn to love with that same kind of love. Agape is the highest and most pure form of love. This love is the life we were created for. When I live without this kind of love, I am lost. When I think without this kind of love, I am confused. When I love without this kind of love, I am wasting time. As God has loved me, I want to love others, so I will open my heart, mind and spirit to God’s love, so that it might flow to me and through me to others.
