Replace Ruckus with Love

The purity of love should engross this ruckus filled world.

Our lives should reflect what this verse states:

"Dear friends, if this is the way God loved us, we must also love one another. No one has ever seen God. If we love one another, God lives in us, and His love is perfected in us."

1 John 4:11-12

The Lord is the ultimate role model for this virtue by sacrificing His Son for us. A way we can reflect the attribute to others is by bearing the "breastplate of love" (1 Thessalonians 5:8).  

Not Your Typical Berry

Generally fruit grows on trees and branches, however, humans have a much stronger fruit. With the days given to us from our Lord, all our lives should be rooted in the presence of Jesus. Our core should be strengthened with love, with the same sense of love found in the fruits of the spirit. 

There is a children’s song that you can hum, "The fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control." Meditate on this when you feel yourself digressing.

Your spirit is not a two story home, you can only chose to be on one level. Either go upstairs where the fruits of the spirits rest or mozy down stairs where you can do whatever you would like with the world.

Our souls are built as a single story house, where we are perpetually called to carry on with our lives bearing the fruits of the spirit. Nevertheless, there is also a face we can not divert from. The bright glowing face of our Lord Jesus Christ, who made it through all this with flying colors.

This face is what your eyes must rest on. 

Love makes its way through to touch each of your hearts, giving you access to these fruits. Not fruits as cherries or berries, but much more prominent one in our lives.

 ^"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against such things. Now those who belong to the Messiah Jesus have crucified their flesh with its passions and desires.  Since we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also be guided."

Galatians 5:22-25

Give Me the Recipe for Love

Grasping the concept of the attribute of love. 

It is not found from eating an abundance of cake or ice cream, even if this will put a smile on your face. 

There is only a single pathway to take hold of the notion; we need to first notice that there must be something infinitely more powerfull then you or I who put this whole planet with the sky and all into place. 

If we ultimitly accept this, we then find the single direction to life is from our God (for no one else could create this piece of art). He demonstrated what love is by sending His son Jesus Christ to get stomped on and finally get crucified on the cross. 

He gave us all "a get out of jail free card". 

This way we no longer merely exist, but have a purpose from our Savior. He did not have to come to earth, but took it into His own hands to save each person from their sins while also demonstrating what love is.

In this way the love of God was revealed to us: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might have life through him. In this is love: not that we have loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as expiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also must love one another.

1 John 4:9-11

A Path Towards Love

Love. 

The first route to go down to insinuate this trait would be to have faith. Without faith, there is no purpose in life to grasp, and you find yourself consistently pondering the question"why". 

Yet, when life is accompanied by faith the question transforms into "how". How can I endeavor to translate my everyday breath to be for more of a point?  

As we observe this monotonous world, we need to breath instead of searching for a temporary inhaler. If we keep on trying to please man, the result is only frustration. For the single source of happiness is not complete vanity, but is for our Heavenly Father. 

To display love, one needs to grow the root of faith. Both are received from Lord. 

"We remember before our God and Father your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ."

1 Thessalonians 1:3
