We hand out titles, like invitations to vested people that we believe are appropriate, based on convenience.
Then, we demote them accordingly, when the leaves fall away and the climate changes.
We fall in and out of love with people like the weather.
We treat them like they're disposable--relevant, then irrelevant.
We control the narrative and adjust the thermostat (as needed). Either we turn up on them--cold or hot in response to their service.
We cultivate doubt and nurture instability (cause we failed to properly wait for God’s instruction).
We jumped on the freeway of love without specific directions.
We allowed “feelings” to navigate and cruise control drove us to destruction.
We crashed into truth that exposed our lack of preparation. We packed the wrong bags. We intended to stay forever!
We are crushed by the reality, “They were not hand picked for us by God.”
We executed too soon.
It was not time to launch into the deep. The cues of inconsistency, instability, and immaturity warned our reluctant hearts, but we proceeded to the route.
Don't allow your heart to provide a permanent dwelling for a temporary occupancy.
Don’t allow the weight of your load to send you out into the wilderness searching for a “vehicle of love” to carry you where God will take you.
Don’t allow seasonal people to make reservations for vacation in your heart and cause you to miss God’s best.
Don’t allow your heart to be mishandled in and out of season.
Stop recycling man’s leftovers and allow God to cultivate his abundance.
Stop standing on false accusations of love.
Stop sending up "smoke screens" to the memories of yesterday and allow them to freely go!
" Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails..." 1 Corinthians 13:4-8
Anything outside of God, will not produce love or reproduce longevity.
