![]() There is no FEAR in LOVe . but perfect LOVe drives out FEAR |
Love that feels too good to be true is sometimes too much for a person to handle. This kind of love makes you say, do and think of stupid things. It is the kind of love that takes over your thoughts and makes you feel weak and inferior to others.
At the beginning of this year it was reported that a University of Johannesburg student died at her hostel residence. It was alleged that an illegal abortion could be the reason for her death, Read more. Recently in the news headlines, a University of Pretoria student had shot herself in the stomach at the day of her graduation, alleging that she was trying to commit suicide because she had failed her studies, Read More .
According to (Frank Sant'Agata; 1996), Fear is an unpleasant feeling aroused by the threat of danger, evil and pain whereas Love is a passionate and strong liking of someone. Love and fear work hand in hand. You treat the people that you love with the knowledge that you do not want to disappoint, hurt or lose them.
Both of these incidence and many others could have been handled differently and it saddens me that certain actions were taken out of fear and love for their family and friends. What I am trying to get out here is that love controls your behaviour and decisions that you make, whether they will or will not hurt the people you love and care about.
Love follows us wherever we go so make a decision to give and receive love from others. Do not be afraid, we all abound to fail there and there but our ability to get up, learn and teach from our experiences makes us conquerors and achievers.
Love is what makes us live and is what makes us wake up with so much joy in our hearts. It don't matter wether its love we receive from our friends, family, girlfriends and boyfriends. But love become strong when we communicate with those who are closer to our hearts and making sure that we are not afraid to express that love. If you are afraid to disclose your frustrations, difficulties and problems to those who loves you then who are you going to confide to? Hiding your emotions is not the way of showing love, its fear. The bible quotes love, as "Kind and patient", so we must not be fearful especially to people who loves us because fear leads to death
ReplyDeleteI agree with you Mr Ngcongo. love is supposed to be kind and patient but it is not like that all the time. love is sometimes aggressiive, misunderstandings occur,and it hurts . i believe that fear is a part of love. we make better decisions sometimes out of fear and love for the people we most care about.
