I believe that everyone has a void and we yearn for that void to be filled by the love of another, by someone we innately believe will fulfill our feeling of being incomplete. But now that we know that finding that someone will not, in fact, fill the void, my question is, will we really feel whole when we learn to love ourselves? And simply, is it possible to ever feel full and complete on our own? I guess the answer to my question from a Christian perspective is a defiant and resounding ‘no’ in more ways than one. For one, we are dead, severed from God, because we are sinners. To love ourselves without the light of God’s love is equivalent to becoming engrossed with preparing a wealthy funeral and pretty deathbed for our future inevitable end. So no, in this way, we cannot be complete by loving ourselves for we would lead a selfish and wayward life living only to please our fleshly desires. Secondly, God created and designed us to love and be loved. We crave it from our cores. For those of us who are lucky to experience and practice ongoing, steady love, please, try not to take any moment of it for granted. And for those less fortunate, I can only pray that God will have mercy and come into your lives. So once again, it will not be possible to feel complete because we have been built with a soul that thirsts for the glorious reunion with God through love. Now that everything has been said, I now reach the point of my spiel about love and filling that void- it is my ultimate doubt in my walk of faith- will God come through? Will he pull through and complete us? And if so, why is it that courage continues to fail us when we know we should find the strength to seek Him? Why do we frequently feel alone when we have already accepted the Holy Spirit into our hearts? Why is the task of having faith so difficult in the face of temptation? Why must we continue to experience the pain and hardships of loneliness and feeling unloved? Is hope just a false trail that leads to more pain? Hope is the door to love, which in turn makes us vulnerable and ultimately susceptible to destruction. Yet somehow in this sick cycle, we manage to lift our heads from the ashes and cling on to this thing, hope, and drag ourselves back onto our feet to once again cry out to a God who disciplines for “our good.” If this is the case and a fact of our human nature, I wonder if maybe the spiritual warfare is much more bloody and gruesome than I imagined. Maybe the price of our souls is really worth the cycles of pain caused by loneliness and hardships. For all I know, if all of these periods of strangled and desperate cries for God to do something to change the state of our lives is the price that warrants our salvation, not to mention the death and blood of a divine being (and it doesn’t matter if it is the correct god but simply the fact that it requires A being greater than our human selves), then maybe I am simply misunderstanding the entire picture. I do not know how much God loves us, how much our souls desire to be fulfilled by God, or exactly how gigantic, powerful and terrifying God is, but apparently so much so that Satan shall pay the consequences of his actions by being chained in hell for a thousand years and then along with evil ultimately destroyed into non-existence once and for all after Jesus completes the thousand year reign, and then we shall live for eternity with God and never again feel lonely again…</p> <p><br/>“Just so, I tell you, there will be more joy in heaven over one sinner who repents than over ninety-nine righteous persons who need no repentance.” - Luke 15:7 (ESV)</p>http://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/45202492517http://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/45202492517Tue, 12 Mar 2013 14:44:00 -0400whatshouldwecallme: LOLLhttp://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/43514321193http://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/43514321193Tue, 19 Feb 2013 17:24:06 -0500again, i have to say this to myself again to emphasize the importance and truth in this area of my...http://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/43129305822http://saericanum.tumblr.com/post/43129305822Thu, 14 Feb 2013 23:54:00 -0500
