A journey called life
can never be sweeter than when we are surrounded by the people who love and
care about us despite the odds might be it social status, wealth, religion and
race. The desire to be loved and cared for is the greatest wealth which a
person can have at their disposal but it comes at a price which is sacrifice,
it is an absolute gift which makes us whole. The emptiness inside can only be
fulfilled by the great gift of love which can move mountains no matter which
season it might be it can still bare fruits which manifest in our hearts. Love does not lie, boast or have pride
but it is a fountain of warmth, care, kindness and hope which are all fruits of
love. 1 Corinthians 13:4-8 Love is
patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5
It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and
it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with
the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, and always
perseveres. 8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will
cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge,
it will pass away. Love in its three categories it is still the same and bares
all the manifestations and above all it is always forgiving and forgetting be
it AGAPE, FILIA or AREOS.
Agape is love from GOD
which manifests to us, for God so loved the world that he gave his only be
gotten son, this is a clear indicator to show us that love is always sacrifice.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world
that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not
perish but have eternal life. In the book of John it goes on further to say 1 John 4: 8 whoever does not love does
not know God, because God is love. This
is a lesson to humans that no matter how much we sinned God is always forgiving
and forgetting. Love is the only thing that can heal and change the hearts of
mankind, love is never hurt because it is always there to reprimand and it is
always shinning the light to its manifestations. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While
we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Fundamentally in this
world we live affiliated to our families which give us the sole reason for our
existence and being this is called Filia
the love between families. Above all the manifestations of this love are
proved through the sacrifices we make for our families. When a woman shares her
greatest gift with a man they is a manifestation and that is the root were it
all begins. When a woman gives birth to a child the joy and passion which burns
within her, throughout a woman’s life sacrifice and care for her family are the
sole purpose she wakes up every morning to work hard. The bond which is created
between a woman and her siblings is greater than anyone could ever imagine
because she always wants the best of her family. Proverbs 31:15-17 she gets up while it is still night; she provides
food for her family and portions for her female servants. 16 She considers a
field and buys it; out of her earnings she plants a vineyard. 17 She sets about
her work vigorously; her arms are strong for her tasks. I am not writing this
as an expect of love but my intention is to spread it the same way it had been
planted inside me am just a soul trying to manifest it to the world, no later
than tomorrow because I want everyone to have a purpose which is to change the
world through love. A man is much jealous when it comes to protecting his
territory which is his family, he would sacrifice anything to see his family
happy. A fathers love and sacrifice can be seen when he goes out to work just
to put all the basic needs on the table for the family, no matter how stormy it
might be he manages to pull through. A good father can humble himself to the
extent that he can fail to were descent cloths on his body but he know that the
desire within him is so much greater and worth to do so because he wants to see his family
happy. 1 Peter 3:7 Husbands, in the
same way be considerate as you live with your wives, and treat them with
respect as the weaker partner and as heirs with you of the gracious gift of
life, so that nothing will hinder your prayers. Noah stands out among fathers
in the Bible as a man who clung to God in spite of the wickedness all around
him. What could be more relevant today? Noah was far from perfect, but he was
humble and protective of his family. He bravely carried out the task God
assigned to him. Modern fathers may often feel they are in a thankless role,
but God is always pleased by their devotion. Surely one of the most underrated
fathers in the Bible was Joseph, the foster father of Jesus Christ. He went
through great difficulties to protect his wife Mary and their baby, and then
saw to Jesus' education and needs as he was growing up. Joseph taught Jesus the
carpentry trade. The Bible calls Joseph a righteous man, and Jesus must have
loved his guardian for his quiet strength, honesty, and kindness.
Moreover Aeros the love between two people is a
complicated topic to dwell since people have different perspective to suite
their own desires. But the fact still remains and it cannot be denied that love
always manifest fruits in it according to the above definition. 1 Corinthians 13:4-5 Love is patient,
love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does
not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, and it
keeps no record of wrongs. Love between to people can be a thing which many can
learn to purify their hearts because it feel so beautiful and divine because
two souls sacrifice everything to be one in spirit through a union which no man
separate. Genesis 2:24 that is why a
man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one
flesh. It is always a process of perfecting each other through a lifetime of
ups and downs which both parties will stand with each other no matter what may
come their way as they confess on the alter when they do take vows. Only
through Christ can a couple can be sanctified and be perfected because all
things which are in God’s hands are perfect. Colossians 3:14 and over all these virtues put on love, which binds
them all together in perfect unity.
Love as universal it is
the only factor that can change a man’s heart through its manifestations
through sharing it with friends and neighbors to make this world a better place
free from hate and evil. Colossians 3:13
Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance
against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. Proverbs 27:10 do not forsake your friend or a friend of your
family, and do not go to your relative’s house when disaster strikes you—
better a neighbor nearby than a relative far away. Leviticus 19:18 “Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against
anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the LORD. Psalm 103:17-18 but from everlasting to
everlasting the LORD’s love is with those who fear him and his righteousness
with their children’s children— 18 with those who keep his covenant and
remember to obey his precepts. I hope this might piece of work we can continue
to share love of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. As I wrote this piece of
work I felt empty but I had hope that through love I can be filled and find a
purpose of sharing it to you my brothers and sisters but as I conclude this my
anger has been dissolved into a greater purpose than me and for that I pray you
too can walk on the same path.
