Money can’t buy love

Posted on by asherdc89

There are men and women who both put money and beauty before love. Occupation, money and aesthetics is seen as a social economic status. And also, friendship, marriage and children is only considered to be idealistic as commodities, not for love.
So when it comes to people, relationships and children it is not for the purpose of love, but for what is superficial, pride. Having no depth, no character and no understanding for the pride of beauty, material wealth, and financial accomplishments. And how one is seen enjoying the physical comforts of life.

Without God it’s all meaningless. For God is love. And without love, life is reduced to the superficiality of materialism.Where it’s all about self, and not caring for others.

There is only 4 different kinds of love. Eros, Philia, Storge and Agape. Eros is a romantic love between a man and a woman. Philia is a love for a friend. Storge is a love, which a parent has for their child. And Agape is a love, which is selfless and unconditional. Agape is the love of God.

It’s then God’s love which defines all love. love between a man and a woman. Love for a friend. And love from a parent to a child or a child to a parent. This love was manifested through the character of Jesus Christ.

In conclusion: We as a people need to look to the example of God’s love through His Son Jesus Christ. And not to the world’s, filled with pride and selfishness.

Since 2010, I've experienced promptings, encouragement as well as assistance from the Holy Spirit. The promptings led me to the word of God. This was the start of my own personal journey as I sought after the truth. God was then calling me as I sought after the truth according to His word. The truth was leading me to the decision to give my life to Him. I gave my life to God on the 28th of January 2012. Instantly, I had the desire to share with others the truth of God, that God is a God of love, truth, righteousness, holiness, mercy and justice. I couldn't keep something like this to myself in a lost and dying world, a world in a fallen state, and a world steeped in confusion concerning the view of who God is. My journey wasn't without struggle though, I realised through suffering we come to know God. To not only be humble, but to be empathic and not detached from people who are suffering. Sometime in 2012, God inspired me to become a writer just after my prayer to fulfill my purpose, the purpose of the reason of my existence. My prayer was a reflection of Isaiah 43:1-7. So I started writing essays pertaining to His word. I shared what I wrote with my family and friends. Therefore, the aspiration to help people globally, came with the realisation to give God the honour and the glory. To be part of making a difference. The inspiration to start blogging was impressed upon me to do. Through prayerful guidence, I believe God has led me to this point, which I believe is for His glory.
