Thoughts 2

"All the love in life flows from God."

This is a thought to think on, I am going to speculate on it even though some may not agree, and I may be wrong.

With the previous stated thought in mind, all the love in life flows from God, what I see is God as a giant bowl of love that never runs out. He chooses who to pour his love onto and who to withhold his love. God gives love to all people regardless of whether they believe in him or not. His love rains down on the world just like suffering is felt by people who believe in him and people who do not. Now to present a few thoughts to support this idea.

When a baby is born there is so much love that enters a persons life. Maybe it is because the new life that is given by God is showered with his love, and that love flows from the baby into all. Love trumps all other things, that is why when a family has problems, a new babies love can make a relationship good for awhile. It is a parents responsibility to grow that love that was given by God into something beautiful. What I am saying is that the love God gave can diminish over time. Think of a seed that begins growing into a plant, if it does not have water and sun that plant will die. Love that is not tended dies.

Another thought is a new relationship, if you do not give time into a relationship it will die. It is just like the seed and plant also. This relationship could be a romantic one, family, friends, or acquaintance, it does not matter there is still love that can grow in all. The biggest thing in our lives is the yearning for love. We buy things thinking that it will make people want to spend time with us and love us. We dress a certain way in order to attract people to us in the hope that they may grow to love us. We worry about what other people think about us because subconsciously we just want them to love. Now to talk about love at first sight, it could be the love given by God in order to attract two people together that are suppose to meet or be together.

So, what point am I trying to make here? Easy, "All the love in life flows from God." There is one more small piece to that puzzle, love is like a small seed that needs tending to grow. That seed can grow into a giant tree that flows from you into others. When love enters your life, that smallest of seeds, it is your choice whether you want to grow it or let it die.
