Love Destruction…
Bringing clarity to an overwhelmed mind…
Destruction through love as love conquers all. For real love isn’t always pretty but the hate and shame we put on ourselves is ugly but still we do it. Allow love to come in and destroy your old ways, your old habits. Yes, it’s going to be painful but it only last for a moment, for a season. Love conquers all and doesn’t hold back or is passive as it comes to destroy and take over everything. Allow the love you have for yourself destroy all those old stagnate habits.
I had to allow old habits to be destroyed and I am still allowing some old habits to be destroyed as we speak. As I show love to myself, I have realized that there are two sides of this self-love thing going on. While I do have many great moments of showing love to myself, I am coming to the conclusion that there is just as equally a painful side to self-love. When you start to treat yourself how you also would righteously treat another person you begin to reap beautiful benefits of self-love. You start carrying yourself with more confidence, head up as you walk, able to speak up even when not called upon. I went through that process of reaping these beautiful benefits that most can see but there was another process that I wasn’t totally prepared for. Love Destruction…
As I have allowed the love that My God through Jesus Christ has given me to show and use I am experiencing a new life that for me is like an awesome 90’s movie. Growing up our Friday night treat was going to Blockbuster and picking out a movie. Then, heading to the dollar store to buy a ton of candy and snacks. Which for the most part was the reason I mostly chose good because I really loved the benefits of Friday night Blockbuster runs. In those moments as a child there wasn’t much consequences at all to life as I wasn’t missing out on concerts, clubs, or fancy dinners with my friends. At that stage in life it was simple love others and love yourself. But when you are no longer under your parents’ direct protection and your will out powers anything else around you, things can get a little tough. Love Destruction…
The older I got and the more Love I showed to myself the more things seemed to become complicated. For years that confusion stayed until one day I took a stand and decided to show the same love to myself as I have shown to others. For so long I never allowed God’s love to penetrate my soul as I just kept everything surface level for everyone to see the good. I wasn’t ready to take that dive into the deep end and allow God’s love to come in and destroy all my old stagnate habits. I knew there was an un-pinned life inside of me, but I never wanted to take that journey. I knew that once I started on the journey and allowed God’s love to move throughout my whole body some things will be destroyed. Love Destruction…
I was afraid to take that dive because I already knew what would happen, and exactly what I thought would happen is what happened. I knew that the moment I Let Go of My Life and let God’s Love move throughout me I would begin to expereince a new life. Finally, when I Loved My Father, Trusted in Him, Delighted in Him and Let Go the love destruction process began and is still going on. While I have some painful moments it’s a joyful pain as I knew that the new beautiful work He is doing in me is First out of Love and the Finished Product is shown out of Love. Love Destruction…
