We all believe true love is with the one we will fall in love with for the rest of our lives. I do not believe that is the truth. I believe true love is much more simple to find, I believe most of us have found it since the day we were born. Love is not something that grows inside us because we came from love. God created this World with love and created Man and Woman with love. We should always love one another.
” Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamour, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice: 32 And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you.”
A Child Loves Their Parent
When a child is born it shows love for the mother and father. It does not start there though. It begins in the mother’s womb. The child is one with the mother and grows very close to the father. If the father is not around rather if it is due to a job, separation, divorce, or a disagreement in a relationship the child will grow close to the mother and not the father. If there is a lot of arguing, fighting, or disagreeing while the child is still in the womb it can make the child very distant from the parents. In any of these scenarios the child still loves their parents. It is just showing the love for their parents is what gets difficult.
According to the American Psychological Association, 40 to 50 percent of couples get divorced in the United States. This is very hard on the child. When the child is still young, below their teen years, it can cause problems latter in life. It may seem they accept their new family, new home, new friends; but things do change in life and when the child reaches their older teen years or later they may wonder what would have happened if their parents had never been divorced. This is where the blame game comes in to effect. The sad part is there is no one truly to blame, but the child won’t learn that till their adult years. That maybe a little late.
There are children that live in good homes rather if their parents got divorced or never had been divorced. One way is a divorced family can keep consistent contact. The parents need to swallow their pride and think of their children. It is like going to work and putting up with an arrogant boss. The problem is if you quit having family you cannot go get another family, at least not your true family. You quit your job there is always another one out there. Parents do not think of yourselves all the time, think what you can do for your children so the grow up with a better life than you did. If you do they will always be there for you when they reach adulthood, have a job, and have their own home. Maybe one day you will move in with them.
Love of Husband and Wife
I have heard before that love is love. I do not believe that is true. The love between a man and a woman is a love that grows. It does not have a bonding together like a child and his/her mother. I do believe we all have a soul mate that God wants us to be with in life. I believe there is a true love that God has us destined for in our life. It seems like this day and age we do not meet our soul mate or at least do not take the opportunity to take a move when we are given it.
[Whoso] findeth a wife findeth a good [thing], and obtaineth favour of the LORD.
Just because we do not meet our soul mate does not mean we do not truly love the one we are with. We are suppose to love one another as ourselves.
But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
Maybe if we could show love to each other married couples will last, families will stay close, friends will be friends, and there would be more happiness and peace in the World. So the next time you see a person who needs help, has a question, or maybe someone who wants to help you thank God and be happy.
