Is Anyone Ever Really Single?

Is anyone ever really single? My answer based on observation is no. People may not have a relationship status, but they are married to their hurt, dating their pain and have hearts that are still flirting with an ex. There may be no rings on fingers, but there are definitely strings attached to hearts. The question is, how many strings are attached to your heart? Do you live with your hurt?

Levels of Love: Service

The Oxford Dictionary defines service as “The action of helping or doing work for someone.” Does your love serve? Does your love heal? Does your love lift? Does your love fertilize? Does your love fix? Does your love birth new life? I believe everyone we encounter is pregnant with purpose. When we give our love to others it should birth something new in them.

Casual Casualty

There is a significant correlation between the word casual and casualty and I don’t believe this is by coincidence. If we analyze each word to gain a deeper level of understanding, it becomes evident that the things we partake in casually can cause us to become a casualty. As stated in the Bible, there is life and death in the power of the tongue (Proverbs 18:21) and when we speak of things casually, we become unconcerned about them. When one becomes unconcerned, they also be

WHAT IS LOVE TO YOU?

Love is a universe that can not be contained or explained. Love is everything, love is everywhere and love is in everyone. Do you see it? Do you feel it? Do you protect it? Do you respect it? Do you promote it? What is love to you? If you believe in love, you believe in freedom. Love is appreciating what is, but still recognizing what could become. Love is growth. Love is a seed with the potential to blossom into bliss if you are willing to give it water and light. Love is
