God's Command To Love - Back To Basics
Today was a day of emotional roller coaster...yet I can't tell anybody about it except Abba. Cos He knows me inside out, outside in. I might as well just tell Him lur. At work, where else can I go, except school toilet. Cos I was afraid that it would hurt so much as I pour out to God that I would drop tears. It's tough to be vulnerable. But that's part of loving that I cannot avoid. If you want to open your heart to love, you have to be prepared to get hurt. But that's how we develop this aspect of the spiritual fruit of love, by choosing to love when the loving gets tough, or rough, or not reciprocated. Cos agape love does not expect love in return, it's unconditional. I'm hurt because I'm expecting something in return, be it words, deeds, and/or the lack of. Thank God I have Him to run to. His Spirit will comfort and give grace so I will not fall into the trap of self-pity. I believe this package is God-sent. Cos I asked God to enlarge my capacity to love....
