Morning with Ebenezer

SEEKING LOVE?

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 5:8 NIV

We are living in the period of human history which mankind is hungry for love. There is a huge number of people who are struggling to find love by any cost. Sadly most of them because of being naive with the nature of the world, found themselves seeking it in wrong sources.

Young girls find themselves giving out their virginity that they may get love and acceptance from those who once claimed they love them. Later they discover it was not love but they were manipulated by those who knew more than them. This cause a lot of pain for those who once believed in love and hence leave active wounds inside of them.

We see this struggle continue to the family level, most of wives try their level best to gain the acceptance from their husbands. Children do whatever they can that they may get attention and love from their parents and vice-versa. Struggle continues among friends and relatives all of them seeking love that they may satisfy the hunger which they feel inside; but most of them end up in disappointment.

This morning, God wants you to know that He is the source of love. You need to start seeking love where you can find it, God is love. If you seek love from Him, you will get it. His love is unconditional, God does not love you that He may get something in return. He will not manipulate you that He may get advantage of what you have because He loved you when you were still a sinner.

There a gap inside the heart of man, which no one can cover it but God alone. The great Theologian of all time, St.Augustine of Hippo once said, “Our hearts are restless, until they can find rest in you.” God is the only one who can satisfy what you feel inside, no handsome man or beautiful woman can do it. Stop looking for help from people, start looking for it from God. Shalom
