TESTIMONY OF LOVE by Amos Raphael (good romance books to read .TXT) 📕

In kindergarten, a friend of mine hit me with a stone on the head intentionally he was bullying me most of time. I began bleeding and was rushed to a dispensary for treatment. When I was brought back the boy was to be punished, I ran to the teacher and said “please sir, forgive him. My mum told me that Jesus said we have to forgive those who wrong us” the teacher looked at and said what did you say? Starring at me with nothing to say but he was puzzled with my statement he let him go. this developed into a habit of forgiving and finding no fault in anyone no matter what they were doing towards me and those around me, I would just say politely that’s not a good thing with a smile on my face and everything would just be cool.

You know I find that Most of times we find ourselves looking for meanings of things, like why something happened in my life, why someone had to hurt us or I can’t be this or have that because I once did this in my life but I say “ if it happened it happened why does it have to mean anything” because you couldn’t prevent what happened but for what’s next it’s your choice how you want it, “the past is not an excuse it’s a weak man’s point to justify his weakness and a strong man’s strength to prove his strength”. If someone does you wrong, why not learn to make it right. Even if the mistake isn’t yours, this is how we make peace and that is what love is. love forgives and is also peace. it is right to be angry, furious and even feel bad about a situation or somebody, I don’t deny that but what am trying to say is don’t let this thing exceed the power of love in you. You can have all this thing to whatever highest degree, but allow and let love lead, when love takes over good happy decisions will rule each day and every situation of your life. A smile will be an unchanging product of your face to the world and joy will take possession of your lifetime.

I was promised to be Loved for the rest of my life, I was Loved before this life, I am Loved and I will always be Loved. Understanding this made me promise to Love for the rest of life to eternity, truth and honesty had to be the pillars of my heart and in loving they gave peace, and they teach each day loving, at no limits some people say these days’ people don’t love each other they only look for interests that fulfil their earthly desires. But I say no most people don’t choose to hear the truth and honesty they search for what they want to hear, not knowing that’s rejecting Love. Love your neighbor as yourself. The scriptures say. All I know is that the world is full and filled with plenty of Love in it but most people reject it in the course of feeling more worthy or unworthy as a result, truth and honesty dies letting interest taking over and love becomes silent. When Christ was at the cross dying he uttered “FATHER FORGIVE THEM THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY DO” I know for sure that was LOVE himself speaking the truth in Honesty but most rejected his voice till this hour. What more can a man give than the truth and honesty that fills his entire Loving Heart.

“The society introduced God to me in the name of religion but in the course of life I understood it was not about religion, it was rather about my faith in God, it was all about understanding the love God had for me and it was all about learning to love God who indeed is LOVE himself, and I kept doing the thing mum called prayer.

Before I used to wonder, how many people go without food each day in this world, how people kill one another, how many can’t afford their need, this world looks as a chaos in its real perspective, then I realized God was the hope of all this people as they always said “God will make a way he has a good plan for me” I couldn’t be certain if I believed or did not believe.

There was a time I too was not sure if I might have something to eat, I had no good place to sleep, I couldn’t get the things I needed, I cried a lot because I had no friend, but I had only one hope, God. still I had one question, which God to follow they say there is only one God but I saw many of them, but am thankful I understood eventually there is a GOD that created us and their gods we created, that was what made the difference. I heard someone say I will protect my God I asked myself how can a tiny little creature at a corner of the earth protect a God that created the universe with its more than 7Billion know galaxies live alone what human minds can’t image. The world made this gap we know very little of the GOD that created us but so much about the ones we created, GOD is love, how can he readily meet the rich, keeps the poor waiting, petty, make false promises, makes us live in fear. I love saying, there is no doubt in God he is God and nothing can change that whether we choose to believe him or not we are still his creation, he will love us but let’s not forget, he who creates can also destroy but this God keeps his promises.(.PK.)

This is why I say, I will Love God for the rest of my life, and love, sometimes people call it sacrifice. Love is the strongest weapon, the best gift and happiness at every corner of the world. And it’s the reason when I say “I Love you” I mean it from the two pillars of truth and honesty in my heart.

It’s true sometimes we feel so weak but be glad life is the happiest thing ever, though most of times we might spend time at a corner shed some tears. To make them worth we shed them while saying a prayer and for sure when we come out we come very strong than before feeling more admirable and even appreciated full of glory.

If you want to go someplace you need a map and the compass. Let the BIBLE be your map your destination be HEAVEN then locate heaven on your map and use PRAYER as your compass in case of advice the HOLYSPIRIT is the teacher your neighbor is your college you support each other in this Journey. Never ignore the words of the men and women of GOD as leaders of the church, they are part of the work of the Holy Spirit to teach you on how to make your steps towards heaven. But remember focus on GOD not man.

WHY WE LOVE (INSPIRED BY ANGELO MOTIVATION)

The problem with love is that most of us feel we have to earn it, most people feel, they have to somehow be worthy of it and deserving it. So their happiness is titled that their satisfaction is bound to their ability to earn love. You can’t earn love, and if you try it then that’s a long broken road. Love is not what your trying to earn, something your tying to be worthy of. If it is so, then you’re looking for something else and it’s not love. You’re chasing something that looks as love and not it. You can dress it up, but that’s not love, you can commit to it but that’s not love, you can cry for it, fight for it but still that’s not love. You want it to be, you wished it, I know but all you got was a face full of tears and you still don’t know what love is. maybe I can’t describe it but I know it’s not earned its given, it’s not stored in a box somewhere to be discovered, it’s not a puzzle you have to put together, it doesn’t feel like a fight, it just flows. we make it hard, we turn it to something else, it can’t hurt but we turn it into pain, it can be felt for forever but we turn it into possession, it can feel a distance but we turn that into suffering, maybe Dad didn’t know how to say it but it was there, maybe Mum was screaming it but you couldn’t hear because her demons were too loud, but that love was always there.

Do you want know what it looks like and how it feels? look around you, when your driving home, people all around you are waiting for something, waiting for those few days, those sweet moments to be with friends again with family again for warm embraces, for laughs, for good stories and for simple words that don’t cost anything but mean everything, like I miss you, I love you, please stay a little longer.

What do you want? What we all want is love, it the reason being alone doesn’t feel too good. It’s the reason there really is no place like home, its love. It’s the reason saying goodbye hurts a little more and coming back feels even better, its love. It doesn’t cost anything, you don’t have to earn it, and you don’t have to deserve it. You want to know what love is.

How do you describe how air meets a fire? How do you describe to here that cry, to feel five tiny fingers creeping yours? How do you describe seeing those big brown eyes? How do you describe the feeling of forever? How do you see it in that smile? How do you describe that feeling I will do anything for you? When you feel it in his or her arms? But I know how you feeling when you can’t feel love. Because then you can’t feel anything. You can’t feel love when all you have is a whole you can’t satisfy.

something you can’t touch but can ever feel, something you can here but can never see, and yet there is something else in you, something asking you, who was I before life started happening, before this illusion, because I remember feeling. It wasn’t hard it just came flowing naturally. I kept jumping in the bed playing in the rain, I remember a feeling but it was effortless and I had to think of it and it was me.

what I wanted to know is that maybe for you love isn’t about discovering anything else or anyone else maybe it’s about discovering you, and that can be a strange trip because at the end of it if you spend enough time digging you find out you’re not who you think you are. you thought you were whatever was strewing back at you on the mirror, then you find that your something else, you find that when you say “I” what you really mean isn’t separation, what you really mean is “other” you find that I is the same as other. See that is
