Transcendent. All Powerful. All Knowing. The Definition Of Love. Merciful. Perfect
Love. It's a powerful force. We all want it. In fact we would give our lives in the name of it. It can turn negative into positive and darkness into light. This thing called love. Without it the world would be absolutely dysfunctional. I'm pretty sure we can all agree to that and I would love to here your thoughts on this if you don't agree. So I'll say this. The greatest act of love in the history of history was carried out by God himself. God is the very definition and essence of love. He loves you to ultra cosmic proportions and even that is an understatement. This is truth.
You were created to be a part of a perfect and all powerful family. I like to say our purpose for being here. For some reason that leads me to say this. People always say stuff like "Earl, you're a good man", "You're doing good work", You're the most generous person I know", etc. I am humbled by those words and reluctant to accept them. But I always wonder if people ever stop to ask a simple question to themselves. "Why does he do it?"
Well when you encounter the most powerful being you are shaken to the core. Your world will never be the same. You are driven to be a light to the world and to give your very life for those around you. People will find you very peculiar because you are operating with power given to you that will confound even the wisest and strongest men. But what they really need to know is that you just chose to be a part of the most loving and powerful family that has always existed. As a matter of fact, anyone can be a part of that family. This is the best news that I wanted you to hear and I cannot leave you without saying this one thing. Love conquers all.
Shalom

This is a perfect topic of discussion @humanearl and "Believe" is the strongest evolution of philosophy in mankind and there may be different belief system and within that the term "belief" is always there.
So let this "Believe" continues....
Of course we all believe in different things but I just wanted to say believe because I think most people can agree that Love is so powerful.
I love her, because I believe her. I live my life, because I believe in it. I love this nature, my surrounding because I have faith and believe in it.
Without believe I will not be even able to breath.
Thank you @humanearl...steem on and stay blissful....
We all believe in something. That's the truth.
I like the statement you have coined here, 'To believe ...'. - When the bard wrote that, the answer was obvious, except in the mind of Hamlet, a disturbed and conflicted man, encircled by deception and ill intent of antagonists in the drama of life. The logical answer clear to Shakespeare's audience however - the answer was 'to be'. The question itself, more rhetorical than actual.
Politicians give the art of rhetoric a bad reputation, causing people to look upon it in speeches and essays as a tool of deception. You and Shakespeare, have something more noble as an objective, I believe.
You are clearly GUIDED my good steemian brother. March on!
That is very interesting @trumanity. I tried to put a spin on shakespeare's words. Thanks for that piece of info.
Thanks @humaneal Truly people are searching for love and the world really does need to know that GOD IS LOVE and that God has revealed Himself to us in His Son, Jesus Christ .
The search ended for me when I encountered the amazing love of God demonstrated to me in Christ.
It has forever changed my life. I'm a better man now than I ever could dream of being outside of Jesus Christ.
Every person searches for love. But not all love is God's love. Once you encounter his love you are in awe. That's the love we need to share with all people.
I am glad you have taken such positive things from the bible. I am not into organized religion myself and believe that together we make "god". But thanks for spreading the love!
Together as humanity we can make heaven or heal right here on earth. Keep up the awesome Vlogs I love watching you grow!
hell not heal
Well we do agree that loves makes thing much better. Thanks for those words and no worries about not being religious. You are very welcome here to share your ideas and thoughts.
Thanks For sharing your religious beliefs. I do value diversity and people so even though I'm not religious please feel free to post about your religion. I like to find things I have in common and build a relationship about those instead of arguing over what we disagree on. But I also enjoy friendly debates
@humanearl,
Without it the world would be absolutely dysfunctional.You are absolutely correct my dear friend! Love has lots of definitions and that would be a great discussion!
Cheers~
People do in fact give love many definitions but at the core I believe it is the idea that you sacrifice yourself in order to benefit others. The opposite of love is hate. If everyone hated each other I'm pretty sure no one would say that would end very well. The world is in trouble now so I could only imagine what it would be like without some form of love.
I must say, I really enjoyed reading this post @humanearl. We often hear “love conquers all,” in fairy tales, or just as a catch phrase. But Is it true? Yes and no.
No First- what we think when we hear it is something like “if I love this person everything will be perfect and easy and we’ll be together forever, happily ever after. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but that is not true. Everything will not be perfect, and everything will not be conquered.
Yes- now for the goodnews. According to the word of God, God is love. That means that everything in existence, as far as we are concerned, is made of love. It is what makes everything possible. Everything in the universe works by God's law of love. So if you understand this love, and use and apply it correctly, you can pretty much do anything. You can endure anything and overcome anything.
Right the proper perspective is that there are two loves at play here. The world's love and God's love. I like how you said yes and no because it is true depending on which love you are talking about.
In my own little opinion, love of and by itself is not enough to conquer all. Love can not magically make two incompatible people compatible, for example.
It's a hard lesson to learn, but compatibility is important. Most relationship problems can be solved simply by good partner selection.
Fortunately, love is not scarce. We share a world with seven billion people. Opportunities for love are all around. A loving relationship with a compatible partner is far, far better than a loving relationship with an incompatible partner.
So you see that it's not just about the love in itself, but also about the people involved.
Compatibility does play a part. That true. What I was referring to however was the love of God which is an unconditional love. But yes I get what you are saying because even many who say they love someone can end up in a broken relationship.
Awesome post bro
My thoughts
Love is something which is spiritual/divine in nature.if someone had done any wrong to you. still you have to be calm and compose.like we do things that God certainly doesn't want from us to do but still he didn't punish us the next moment.
Also love stand for getting annoyed with someone.it has that part also cuz you can't really understand value of love without being unLoved.thats love I think
Thanks for sharing your thoughts. The love that is from God is truly mind blowing because yes it help you to love someone in spite of them harming or annoying you.
You made that? If so that's pretty cool.
Yeah.. I painted it for a #ophumanangels posts
Great work. Glad to see you are an artist.
