Thoughts

Love is the greatest word in the entire human vocabulary. In any language.
It takes a mess of a man and shows him there is freedom.
It embraces the sluts and the "least of these" and lets them know "there is so much more".

You love Jesus. really?
You love Jesus, but you don't love the unloved, you frown upon the poor in character,
your vocabulary is worse than "urban", and the way you treat people, your parents, your boyfriend/girlfriend, would make even the most wretched at heart quiver.
No, my friend, you don't love Jesus.
You are starving Him. You have alot to learn.

Young ladies have us to blame for shaping who they are, gentleman (if any of us deserve that title).
We may not deserve all the blame, but at least part of it.
I hope there's something we can all do in our own lives that can show female humanity that their beauty has never left them and it can never be taken away.
You were born gorgeous.
And no one - no boyfriend, no father, no brother, no teacher, no act of any kind- can take away your "born gorgeous".

Isn't it sad that "love" and "sex" have become interchangeable words?
Even though they really don't have anything to do with each other.
Love isn't defined by sex and just b/c you love someone doesn't mean that there has to be sex involved.
Sex can ruin your life, instead of being a blessing to it.
And if you are under 20 years old, I doubt you even know what love means.
Do you really? Lust and love aren't synonyms, they're antonyms.

Ladies, not all guys are the same.
If I say, "I love you", that doesn't mean I wanna get in your pants,
that means I really do love you.
Society has gotten you to think otherwise.
We can blame shows like Sex and The City for that.
I know you're broken, alone, but you can't find anything to aid in your healing.
To stop the crying.
The question isn't a "why?" question, but a "where?" question: "Where have you been looking?"

Redemption and fulfillment, that is, finding your sense of purpose, isn't far away.
You may just not be looking hard enough. Or ignoring it altogether, afraid of what you might find. Even if it will save you.
