A February Post…

Think hard. Who has shown you unconditional love? No strings attached. No “I’ll scratch your back if you scratch mine” type of condition.

Who has freely given without expecting anything back? This world, this age is steep into “conditions”. From individuals who give expecting something double in return. To people raising their own children, who will not truly love and nurture them because they are not “normal” or a good boy/girl or they first have to do something “great”.

This particular subject fire’s me up, I can’t stand it when children are being mistreated and not truly loved, but I do support discipline when it is called for, children need love and a guiding direction from parents. Believe it or not, children do  appreciate boundaries. Parents: buy this book if you want to learn how to love your kid- “How to Really Love Your Child” by Ross Campbell, M.D. Believe me, it works. Talk to my Mom about it! ;)

Loving unconditionally results in individuals stop playing mental control and false guilt games over each other and “Soap Opera” dramas to control particular individual’s lives.

Note: This is NOT the “peace, man” hippy lingo from the 60’s or the charismatic movement’s interpretation of “love”, and “name it and claim it, health and wealth” people of today (see my main page if you want to know what I believe in).

The non-emotional meaning of Unconditional Love as truly taught in the Bible:

1 Corinthians 13:4-7, “Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things”.

Anyone who is constantly under the constraint of conditional love by your family and friends, talk to your Heavenly Father, God, He is the true One that fully knows what unconditional love means.
He will help you figure out and get through whatever situation you are in.
We all could need a reminder on this particular subject.
