Love And Loving (6)

House Of Love.
Heart of man is the desire of God from man. He wants to inhabit the heart of man. He is love Who wants to occupy it.
Proverbs 23:26
[26] "O my son, give me your heart.
    May your eyes take delight in following my ways."
Looking at those words in the above quoted verse, you will observe that it is giving the Lord your heart that preceeds "your eyes taking delight in following His ways".

It will be somehow difficult to take instructions from a Master you do not love. Many times, when you do, there will be questions to ask. Sometimes, the authority of an unloved Master may be challenged.

On the other hand, you will voluntarily submit to the authority of a loved Master without any challenge or questioning.
The Lord your God wants to occupy your house of love, which is your heart, so that it will be safe from every form of invasion from any quarters. There is no vacuum in nature. If you fail to give your Maker your heart, it will be prone to occupation by enemies of your soul.
Your heart produces the course of your life, so it needs to be occupied by God to guard and guide it, Proverbs 4:23.

The counsel of Apostle John is of great help, he says,
[18] "Dear children, let’s not merely say that we love each other; let us show the truth by our actions.
[19] Our actions will show that we belong to the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before God." 1 John 3:18-19.

In actual fact, you will find out that people's love to one another is in the mouth. They only say it without having it in their hearts to put it into action. That is the reason everyone is longing for love. In the morning, they say they love; in the afternoon, they say they hate the same person. Is this not a serious contradiction?

This is always the case when the House of Love, the heart, is not occupied by the rightful Owner, your Creator.
Beloved, have you given your heart to the Lord for permanent occupation? Please do! It is then you can display Love that can turn your enemies to friends
Stay blessed and prepared for the coming of the Lord.
