A BLEEDING HEART'S LOVE

What is love? How did it started? Love is celebrated once a year. For all the lovers do they know what is really love? Let me tell you what is real love. In the beginning of time the world is created by a Creator God who has the power to create the love between a man and a woman. God created the first human being he called Adam who is male. He created him in his likeness and image out of a handful of clay and designed his physical features the upper part which is the head composed of the hair forehead eyebrows eyes cheeks lips and chin. The middle part is the torso composed of the shoulders hands fingers breast and the abdomen. The lower part is the hips legs feet and toes. God infuse air into his nostrils and becomes a living soul. So Adam is not born but created to be an adult right away. Beforehand God created the universe the firmament of heaven and Earth. The solar system to make the twenty four hours revolution of Planet Earth to be lighted by the sun at day and to be lighted by the moon at night Since Adam is a living soul , to sustain his life, God created the living things he called plants and animals in which Adam can use to sustain his life. Plants bearing flowers with all kinds of colors , vegetables and fruits for him to eat. And he has also dominion over the animals living on land and at sea . There are abundant species of fishes deep in the ocean and from small to the biggest animals man like Adam can benefit from. It is God's plan to provide what man needs to live on Earth. A beautiful world. Of all God's preparation to make Adam happy to live in the Garden of Eden also called the Land of Paradise, Adam seems to be lonely and sad.. God wants him to be happy thinking something else might make him happy. When Adam is sleeping he draw one of his ribs and infuse life to her like Adam and called her Eve, the first female to live on Earth. She has a special , physical features from the male having nipples on her breast , being called the female gender, God .s plan is to let Adam and Eve to live in the Garden of Eden which is all set for them to live. When Adam wakes up he has smiled to see Eve and they have feelings to be happy living together. They are the first man and woman to live on Earth living in the middle of all the beautiful plants and wonderful animals God has created for them to make them happy. In this garden there is one frut bearing tree God didn't want them to eat its fruit. God didn't explain to them why. It is a strict command. They don't know if it has the most delicious and full of nutrient fruit in the garden. Adam and Eve are satisfied and excited to visit the places where flowers bloom and swim in the river to bath themselves. Up in heaven where God lives angels have a big trouble when one of them Lucifer also called Satan the Devil had a fight with one of the angles. Lucifer is dropped down to Earth to stop the problem in heaven. Lucifer has the power to disguise himself. He has arrived in the Garden of Eden in the form of a serpent and here Eve is tempted by Lucifer to eat the forbidden fruit. Eve offered to Adam who is reluctant to eat trying to expel the fruit. It is hard to disobey God's order. Upon hearing Adam and Eve disobeyed His order, God didn't hesitate to punish them. He lost His temper to tell Adam he didn't like them to live in the Garden of Eden, Land of Paradise anymore until now. Man has to follow Him. When God asks who induce them to eat the fruit feeling ashame to tell the truth and they pointed to each other , no one likes to accept the blame of the blunder that is committed. This is the origin of cover-ups or hiding the truth. God added to declare " From this day on from the sweat of your brow you will feed your children from generation to generation." Here Lucifer deceived Adam and Eve drawing them away from the Love of God destroying His plan for them. The hardest part of the punishment is the order of God to Adam to work hard to raise his family and to Eve is to carry offsprings with Adam whether a boy or a girl and suffers the unimaginable pains while delivering her babies when they are born. What happened to the love of God to them? As a part of God's plan He wanted them to multiply and inhabit the Earth. To do that is to get marry. A man and a woman becomes husband and wife and bear children. Adam and Eve has started to have their children and raising them through the hard work of Adam to support his family with Eve. The family is composed of a husband and wife and their children. By all means this is the composition of a family according to God's standard father , mother and their children. Marriage is the most intimate of all human relationships when a man and a woman united as one becoming one flesh as the sperm is fertilized the woman's egg inside her womb. This is the Love of God for both of them to enjoy to multiply the descendants of man. It is the downfall of man not to follow God's command. Some of their descendants is gathered by God and instructed them of His new rules to get nearer to Him again. These new rules are the 10 commandments . One of the rules is not to commit adultery. That means if a man chooses a woman to be his wife and marry her they become husband and wife. The husband will provide for his family and the wife will follow her husband and raise their family together. Another aspe4ct is to develop God's character to be humble to be kind ;loving merciful and compassionate; These characteristics are hard to follow. In the long run God reminded his promises to man the promise of abundant blessings and prosperity if they follow his commandments. One specific promise , if they do good things He will double His blessings to those who follow Him. If someone couldn't pay back his debt to his debtor God will be the one to repay his debtor. If man are truly obedient he will open the windows of heaven and fill all the granaries until they are full and brimming. All of these promises didn't appease the people of God whom He considered as His sons and daughters. Again God thought of sending His Sone Jesus Christ to live on Earth who is conceived by the Virgin Mary. Joseph became the earthly father of Jesus Christ. His task is to redeem the sinners who don't follow God's commandments. He is destined to die to reconcile man with God. and restore the Love between God and man who are His sons and daughters. Then Jesus Christ who lives in the flesh like man performed miracles to show God loved the world and a promise to live in His coming kingdom forever. Man still didn't accept Jesus Christ as a Saviour and Redeemer and He is sentenced to die. The blood Jesus Christ shed when He is hanged on the Cross, His heart bleeding with Love. Love to humankind he has died for. After Jesus Christ death God ordered a new Commandment aside from the 10 commandments is "to love one another" as God has loved humankind , His creation. whom He bestowed complete rulership over other living things to sustain their lives. What does man could ask for? When God is only asking a single favor " to love one another." Satan the Deceiver the Evil one continues to go against the right way of living blocking the prayers of men to reach God. His offers to men are empty promises and temporary pleasures , material goods from discreet resources leading to man's destruction. Alcoholism, drug addiction, gambling and other vices are unabated. Satan is all out to destroy the family. The family God wanted to keep in His glorious kingdom in heaven and on Earth. In a church worship on Sunday mass a couple united by God in marriage following God's command to live together as one raising a family and build a home where love unity obedience and cooperation abides showed up to worship God.. Butch and Becky attends the Holy Mass every Sunday until Butch happens to hear the sermon of a pastor of another church different where they are attending. God is their basic source of belief. and practice. Jesus Christ His Son is secondary and the Holy Spirit comes last. It is Butch leading his wife Becky to this new church. Changes has to be made in their activities and piety to God. It seems to be good, there are food restrictions and the Sabbath of Rest is observed. Welcomed in their household especially to their children Matt and Kim. They attended weeklong festivals skipping their classes with permission from their respective schools. Although they heard criticisms from family friends and neighbors , pastors supervise them and introduce new church activities. Becky is reluctant to do them at first but later on she is able to do them Butch is persistent. What Becky didn't liked is the group of men whom he spent time with who are members of the church. They do the same like other group of men do , drinking together instead of attending to their family affairs. Their reason they have house helpers at home to help their wives. Becky expected Butch to become a better husband in this church they both agreed to join and hoping to give them happiness joy and peace; Their family allowance is beginning to slide when his pay is not fully handed to her. He also misses the family routine to be together during their morning and evening meals. Where is the love Butch promise to her? Their closeness begins to fall apart taken over by his fellow drinkers spent in bars and night clubs. What happened to the church teachings leading families to be more closer to God? These wrongdoings circulating in her mind, is daily piercing her heart. She couldn't stop him. What has become of her husband? The bond of being a husband and wife is starting to crumble. Is this kind of manager capable of leading his subordinates? When Becky confronts him coming home late at night , he is too drunk to understand. Becky's heart bleeds. The only thing she can do is to pray. Pray to God Butch will change his ways. Then he lost his job. His negligence took its toll, to him and to his family. Matt and Kim stopped attending their church. They plan to enroll to another private school to avoid their friends who abandoned them too. His former friends whom he entertained are gone. The church members are no longer as warm as before. Even all these things are happening Becky's Faith to God doesn't falter. God's promise of love doesn't change, it is permanent everlasting and forever. Butch realized what he has done and tries to make amends. This is a big trial to him about his belief about the power of God to forgive. How can God help him in this situation? No company will hire him anymore. How can he win back Becky's love and trust to him again? Is there a way to reach God in heaven to find the solution could Butch find Him there? If he leaves Becky and not go back to her and also his children, would that be the answer? Going back to God's command when they expressed their marriage vows" to love and to cherish, to love and to hold , for richer or poorer, till one or both of them departs" will this be the answer of God? Without Becky's knowledge Butch contacted his friend working as a ship captain if he could accomodate him to work as a Hospitality Manager. He is able to convince him to make a recommendation to his company plying the route of Asian countries on cruise for tourists. This has ease the bleeding heart of Becky to have Butch find a new job. Butch promised Becky to be more cautious careful in dealing with others. To Becky, if God forgives she can also forgive There is no hate or anger , to her it is poison to the soul. The wound in her heart is waiting for God to heal her broken heart.GP
