yea i am a twin. & yes we should cut ourselves some slack, it isn’t easy being human i’m not gon lie, there’s lot of emotions in us that it’s so overwhelming but i know God will always, always be with & for me🙏🏽
The way you connect memories, love and scripture was so nice - it made me reflect on my heart too. It reminds me that love truly is strength, not weakness . Reading this reminds me how much I also long to me loved
'Do I want love or do I just want proof that I am lovable?' is such a valid question. It gets hard to wrap one's head about love and what it means. I've come to understand that so many things are not as complicated as we originally make them out to be. It's just hard to see.
For example, to love is easy, yet it's so hard when factors are added. I like where you wrote that sometimes you wish you didn't have the power of choice. But we do. And that makes being intentional more beautiful and scary. To love is a choice, but to love is also an instruction.
To be loved is beautiful, but to be loved always seems far when hard times come. And when it comes to people, we only see their actions, not their intentions or thoughts. The tendency to try to make ourselves more lovable is so high and so unnecessary. It should make us question whether we love ourselves at all.
We need to always remember, GOD IS LOVE, and He loves us much more than we can ever fathom. It's a constant. The only variable that could stand in our way is us, because of how random we are.
i love this so much. everyone makes out love to seem like hard work, like it has to be given as a reward or something. we see their actions because in it lies intentional & thought process, that’s the only tangible thing that can somewhat validate love. it’s not that we don’t love ourselves, it’s that we (i) have so much to give out that doesn’t seem to be in need.
but i know God who is love and i know He loves me endlessly & nothing can change the way He feels about me, it brings me peace knowing that.
Didn’t know you were a twin..?
Well you just have to be true with your emotions and God, we shouldn’t be hard on ourselves because we are Christians.
We are humans not God, we are allowed to cry and make mistakes but God will be there to guide us.
Remember he is our shepherd.
