Sir,

It is awe-inspiring that fear, the downfall of humanity, is taking its toll as I take my stance on God’s forever standing love.

Ceaseless drops of tears, gush down my wrinkled-by-sorrow face while my hands shake momentarily as I try to write. Love has become a vicious animal that easily gobbles its prey.

By fear, I am in no means insinuating doubt to the faithful readers of this column, but to sombrely express agony with regard to true love.

God said that in His undisputed words, through the Holy Bible, the earth and everything found within its territories will pass, but His words shall remain forever. So if love is God’s word, it means it shall reign and stand eternally.

2 Timothy 4:1-5 (KJMV) writes, thus I quote: “This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come; for men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boaters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, trucebreakers and despisers of those that are good”.

Predestination

This predestination has come!

In the name of love, living is perilous. In the name of love, people love themselves, children are disobedient to their parents, truces are broken and good people are despised.

Love has been a tool to get into people’s lives and disintegrate it into smaller, microscopic and unrecognisable pieces.

The bone of contention for all these appalling occurrences is that God is not recognised in all the relationships people make.

By relationships, I mean not only romantic relationships, but also corporate relationships, friendships and other signed peace treaties around the world.

In all this, God’s love has proven undoubtedly to be healthy, wealthy and worthy of praise. A person who doesn’t know God and claim that he or she loves is stating red and repeated lies. It’s God’s love and love based in God that never disappoints!
