Can we not Just Make Love?

I already fell asleep last night while I kept on thinking over how to “complete a package”.  Grasping my senses as I woke up, trying to recall from my dreams if God could have given me the message that He wants to come across, I ended up querying:

 Can we not just make” love” all the time?

Huh!!! Sounds exciting?  Oh my, of course, it’s not what you think!

‘Sad to note, it is a fact that “wrong MIND-SETS” has been “making headway” over challenged relationships.

Couples would have the tendencies to battle on “who is the greatest?” who is better; who is more tired;  who earns more, should get more rest; who should serve should not complain … and all the likes!  In effect, one’s story is an advantage over the other. One would tend to tell a story that would favour his self-esteem and would disregard the truth. Such esteem would pave the way for one of the couples not to see the “heart of the matter”.  Still so sadly, it would give the escape of spending more time in other things rather than look into what would make things better for the two of them.

At a far more extent, some other couples, in the desire to put oneself first, one of the couples would tend to find recourse outside of the marriage; would tend to look for something elsewhere; would give-in to self-centeredness and would justify that the committed “unfaithfulness” was due to incompatibility and dissatisfaction with the partner. What’s more unfair is that we tend to look for something which we did not give; yet, when out of nowhere somebody comes, such tempter would benefit all the complements which we were not so generous of giving to our partner, neither to our family.

It pays to have a child in us – who knows that they are the least, yet appreciates even the littlest of things that are given to them.  In gratitude, they have the initiative to kiss-away our fatigue and would hug us back our energy  which makes us more inspired to keep on,  despite our struggles. In the same way, a child would naturally feel  great being complemented with every good deed.

To hope the greatest not to add up to the number of broken vows which make innocent children suffer the consequence, may this one help us in realizing that “making love” is making sex holy, factoring in the responsibilities of each of the couple that Bro Jon has inputted to us today.

Plus, considering Jesus’ criteria in the Gospel of Mark 9:30–37: the least, the servants, the children, are the greatest!

“If anyone wants to be first, he must be last of all and servant of all.” So, instead of blinding ourself with self-centeredness, and making “away” with our partner, may our MIND-SET find “a-way” to make “LOVE” prevail all the time! — sunset
