My Testimony

Everyone has a story to tell. That story is unique and different for each individual person because we all have unique and different experiences.  We may be from the same family, but because of the differences in age, interests, schools, friends, acquaintances, and relationships, we learn different things. We have different interactions. We have different experiences. We grow differently.  We may be around the same people some of the time, but not all of the time. We interpret things differently.  We relate to things differently. These differences are what make our stories unique.

My story is my testimony.  My story is the basis for who I was, who I am and who I will become. It is the story of my personal growth in love. It is my journey. My life has not been perfect.  There have been ups and downs, trials and tribulations.  I have been overwhelmed by worldly issues and overcome those issues.  I have been in the storm and through the storm.  I have been hurt, abused and mistreated.  I have been happy and treated with respect, love and care.  I have lived and am here today to share my story. I survived.  I made it through. I have love in my life.  I love. My testimony has been a part of the pages within my books.  It is proof that good things can happen.  It is proof that struggles will happen.  It is proof that life does and will happen.  It is also proof that love exists.  My journey has been long and is not over yet.  This is only part of a greater story.  There is more to do, more to experience and more to tell.  I am here.  I made it.  That is my testimony.  Love always. Love daily. 365 Love. TM

Until the End of Time

Eve was created so that Adam would not be alone.  Adam did not have to search for or find Eve. She was a part of a great plan.  Because of love, she was created for him.  She was created from his flesh and bone to be his help meet; his companion; his wife.  They were to be as one, united until the end of time.  I often think about their life and how important their union was to love and relationships.  They were born out of love, designed by love. They were made companions by love, for love and because of love.

The marriage of a man and a woman should be sacred.  It should be a union made by love, for love and because of love.   And like love, the union should be designed to last until the end of time.  In the Bible, 1 Corinthians 13 says, “Love is patient and kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, 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.” This is how love is defined.  This is how we as individuals should think and act in love.  When these things are a part of our everyday character, a part of who we are, and a part of the relationship, the relationship is long lasting.  It is everlasting.  It can and will last until the end of time.  In today’s world, one may feel that this is not possible. However, when love is truly the foundation of the marriage, it can and will last until the end of time.  If there is ever a question of what is an act of love, refer to its definition. Know that it is as is forever.  Know that it is designed to last until the end of time.  Love always. Love daily. 365 Love.TM
