Vol 1 Number 1

Well, I've finally done it. Here I am in this new world of communications. I pray that this goes well.

Lately, I've been thinking about some oldies but goodies songs that I hear from time to time.
One recently that has stuck out to me is Tina Turner's "What's Love Got to Do With It".
It was such a popular song at the time of its release mainly due to its personal tone given her situation at the time.
But, oh how misleading the title really is. Without love there is no relationship there is only one night stands. One night stands cause heartache, a downward spiral into self-abuse and finally emotional destruction or even physical end. So what does love got to do with anything? Everything!
Without the gift of love no one really knows just how strong relationships are. Relationships of love are the ones of friendship and sacrifice. We pride ourselves on being loving and having meaningful relationships, yet when it comes to actually living out that relationship in terms of a "God relationship" we are taken aback or run to hide. This "God relationship" is the one that we should be walking toward or running to be in the open.
We are at a time in our history that cries loudly for love with God. He has already made that step many years ago in and through Jesus, His greatest example of Love. This love in and through Jesus is the very reflection of God Himself. It is this love that will make all the difference in our lives. This love will show us how to return that love to others, but most especially to God.
So, whats love got to do with it? Again, everything.
Well, that's all for now. It's me, jus thinkin.

  1. I think this is a wonderful blog.. so many people today are hurting and just looking for someone to love them, and they are on a self destructive path when they really need to be on the path to Jesus who can give all the love that they need. this is great look forward to reading more.
