~SUNDAY SCRIPTURE~

[ogloriousday]

..Never become so afraid of being Rejected that you hinder yourself from Fearlessly loving those around you. Never become so afraid of being Hurt that you Prevent yourself from Freely receiving it. Past mistakes can either develop or destroy your ability to Selflessly love or to be Genuine Loved by others. So, Pray for Wisdom and then Fearlessly Love. Ask for Understanding and then Freely Receive it (when it’s from a place of authenticity, patience, kindness, selflessness). If you show it, but it is rejected or questioned don’t take it to Heart. Remember that we have all been Hurt, but Thanks be to God that now You are Healed. And, now you can show Love to someone who has been Hurt. When you are Shown Love, do not Push the giver away and question their motives. Instead, look to the Lord and Ask for discernment. Then, look to the person who extended Love and Consider their actions. Do they act selflessly? Do they show concern for others? Do they fearlessly love without condition? Or, do they say they care and then make requests? If they do, then be sure to Guard your Heart. If they don’t, then take the time to examine your own Heart and Mind. Remind yourself that God loved you too much to not Send his Son, he Loved you too much to not Heal you. And, He loves you too much to Simply let you progress through this Life Alone. God shows his Love in many ways. This includes surrounding you with those who want to see you Happy, Healthy, Successful, Pursuing your Purpose, Loving, and being properly Loved without any incentive for them. So, be sure to extend Grace. Sometimes those who genuinely Love, Encourage, and Pray for us grow weary. Just like us, they get Hurt and Tired, too. So, if they falter in their Support or unconditional Love, remember that you are Called to Genuinely Love them just as they have been called to do the same for you..

"joy and pain, they are but two arteries of the one heart that pumps through all those who don't numb themselves to really living." -a. voskamp.

Jesus You give perfect peace to those who trust in You, thank You God! no need for me to be anxious about anything.

"there is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out all fear.." -1 john 4:18

[stac3yxd]

There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

-1 John 4:18 (NIV)
