Mature Love

Once, there was a love between a man and his GOD. The man forsook him when God failed to please him. There was once a love between a man and his WIFE Until the wife refused to be the servant of her husband. There was once a love between a man and his DOG Until his dog was injured in an illegal dog fight. There was once a love between a father and a SON Until the son demanded his inheritance and departed. That was when the father's love also departed. Lastly, There was once a love between a man and his GIRLFRIEND Until she became pregnant and refused to have an abortion. It's all too clear to see that each man's love was immature. Each man's love thrived on the benefits that he alone received From the relationship. They never realized that it wasn't really love. They never understood that love is not like a faucet to be turned On or off at will, depending on the suitability of one's own taste*. 101422PSCtest, Once There Was a Love.

Yes, you are right, Curtis! Children should have their eyes on The book of Proverbs, learn that the beginning of wisdom is the Fear of the Lord, memorize praises in the book of Psalms and walk rightly with God and man. Be blessed, dear friend!

Thank you, Kim. With that in mind, there is still hope for this generation as God's word becomes hidden in their hearts. Blessings.
