Today we will do a quick test on ourselves and see if we really want to love better. Do I really want life to be easier and better? There is a way! But, I have some work to do. It is not up to others. It is up to me. So, let’s start with some personal statements …..
I Always operate from a love base in everything I do
I Do not operate from a fear base
I Bring Life to all those around me
I Bring life to our planet
I Understand that my current reality is not all actually true
I Understand that Jesus is the only true way to truth and life
I am willing to change my reality and adopt new truth
I am willing to mature relationally in order to better relate and love
Ok…. Now; Am I able to say yes to the last four statements? If that is me ….. Then, I am able to develop a plan to mature and be a better lover. My plan may involve some healing from trauma, returning to joy from pain, and increasing my capacity for joy, and putting away my childish ways. It will take time, but I am on my way to be a better and the best lover!
If I am stuck because I think that someone else is not doing their part, then I am at an infant and child relational maturity level and I definitely need to mature. Love does not require reciprocity. If I am a mature parent like Jesus, I can give and show love no matter what the other person does.
