Love.

Love isn't to be taken lightly.

Love is a movement, a position of the heart towards another.

Love is trust.

Love is truth.

Love is to believe the best in someone and see the b

est through all things.

Love can break a heart of stone.

Love can build back a broken city.

Love brings together.

Love can refresh the dead and revive the lost.

Love isn't always easy.

Love isn't a Word.

Love without ceasing even if love isn't returned.

These words withhold the true meaning of Love:

- I Cor. 13:4-8 Love is patient, love is kind. It does notenvy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

The Restoration

Through experience, I have come to realize that in order for Restoration to occur, Unforgiveness must be terminated, and forgiveness must thrive.

In order for something to be Restored into it's original condition, you must give it the freedom to do so.

"The freedom to do so" = ability to Surrender.

Imagine a Wild horse who was born to be free, but is now tied down, fenced in, and restrained. The horse would have no way of being released unless it's owner came to him, untied his knot, and broke down the gates. He would need to trust his owner - to be open to allow him to set him free.

I encourage you to Surrender- Let Him untie your knot, break down the fence, and let The Restoration occur. Until then, you will remain a Wild horse who is compromising the fact that you are being restrained from the freedom which

you were born to live in.
