This
weekend,
I
can’t help but write the events of this weekend. So surprising that I can
finally lay hold of and grasp the truth. When I saw how magnanimous God had
being in my life for he had being speaking to me in detail concerning the
things I pondered over, the truth truly sets free. At a stage of my life my
confidence in God had diminished because I had tampered with my fellowship and
my consecration. But now I am fully in love with God and I know the truth that
he cares. Edumare! Opemipo lodore (Almighty God I have so many things to
thank you for). Not just that he cares but also that he loves me and has
lavished His love on me.
What
I really want to talk about is the fallibility of man and the role love plays
in this fall. I have heard it being said many times that God doesn't hate us
but he hates our sin. So if God loves us what then is the problem? This weekend
I got to love more! though I was lied to and I was despised, made jest of, I
was scorned, but I kept my heart intact and learnt how to perfect love, despite
all what was done against me I learnt to love more, why would I not love when I
knew I had no other option but to do so. Can you hate yourself? I had being
following Jesus Christ, why would his life not reflect in me? Man! Man never
wants to own up. We always defend ourselves.
What
if I tell you I’m the perfect man! I have full course to do so. If I make such
a claim I’ll be right but no matter how right I am, I will never forget that
man in the flesh is fallible!!!
I
have expressed severally my philosophy of love but I never knew how strong it
was until it started breaking walls. I don’t know how many more of hurt I can
take before the heart refuses to love again but I will love unconditional. I
will love not for what to gain but I will love for what to give. I once told
someone I love you, but I will be happier if another man takes your heart. My
love for you is intact regardless of the choice or choices you make. Can we
love genuinely and selflessly, love not to take but to give and if there is a
possibility of taking then you do; love is best served when it is selfless.
I
want to go over the events of this weekend again. Mixing spirituality with
carnality always has a negative effect and I saw first hand how the laws of
divinity where broken and the cross of Christ made of none effect. We are the
ones who diminish the message of Christ when we mix Christianity with
carnality, whatever structures that the spirit of God builds can be torn down
by carnality.
It
is so sad to see the effects of our misapplication of Christ. Paul said in 1 Corinthians 3; I could not speak unto you
as unto mature sons but as unto babes because you are yet carnal. What did
he mean? He says you fight, you compete, and you instigate quarrels. Are you
not carnal! I have learnt a lot this week and then still I was the teacher. I
also learnt, because a teacher never stops learning. I learnt love knows
no bounds and it can’t be restricted, I learnt love breaks every barriers and
opens every door. Because love is pure it outlasts everything. When you love
nothing can stop your love, scandals can’t stop it, love is unlimited, it can
never be diminished. You can keep hiding but one day love will expose all your
thoughts.
Love
always wins! The enlightenment continues...
I
am one raised solely for the purpose of the body. Inspired to feed the body of
Christ
