Love is a light because it has the power to pull us through our darkest, most unbearable moments. Just as light cuts through the blackest night, love pierces through the pain, confusion, and emptiness when we feel lost, broken, or completely overwhelmed. It offers hope when there seems to be no way out and reminds us that we are never alone. Whether it’s the fierce love of God, the hard-earned love we give ourselves, or the healing love from others, it illuminates the places where pain and despair have taken over, helping us rebuild from the ashes.
Love reveals the truth—it forces us to see our worth, even when doubt screams otherwise.
Love brings healing—like light nurturing life, love restores what’s been shattered, mending even the deepest wounds.
Love gives direction—in the chaos of heartbreak and confusion, love is the beacon that points us toward a new beginning.
Why We Need Love
We need love because it is our lifeline. Without love, we are left trapped in a prison of fear, loneliness, and insecurity, endlessly cycling through self-doubt and uncertainty. Love is the force that drags us out of the depths, heals our wounds, and gives us the strength to confront life’s harshest challenges.
Love nurtures growth: It’s the fuel that pushes us to rise above, to heal, and to transform into who we are meant to be.
Love builds connection: As human beings, we are designed for connection. Love bridges that gap, allowing us to feel deeply connected—to others and to God—restoring the sense of belonging that we crave.
Love restores hope: In the darkest moments of despair, love is what makes us believe again. It reignites the belief that things can and will get better.
Without love, we are disconnected, isolated, and drifting through life without purpose. It’s love that propels us forward, fills us with joy, and gives us the courage to live fully.
How We Get Love
Through God’s love: The foundation of all love. God’s love is unwavering, relentless, and unbreakable. It is always there, offering healing, grace, and guidance, even when we feel unworthy. We get it by turning to Him in faith, through prayer, scripture, and surrendering to His promises. When we accept God’s love, we are filled with a strength that allows us to love ourselves and others.
Through self-love: We cannot truly accept love from others until we learn to love ourselves first. This means acknowledging our worth, forgiving ourselves, and treating ourselves with the kindness and compassion we so desperately need. It’s about embracing our value, despite the pain, mistakes, or betrayal we’ve experienced.
Through others: Love is found in the people we allow into our lives—the ones who uplift us, support us, and stand with us in the trenches. Christ-centered relationships—whether they are friendships, family bonds, or romantic connections—bring healing and show us that we are worthy of love, no matter what we’ve been through.
Love is the light that rescues us, heals us, and makes us whole. Without it, we are left wandering in darkness, trapped in cycles of pain and confusion. We find it by turning to God, learning to love ourselves, and embracing the love that others bring into our lives. Love is the force that breaks the chains of our past and leads us into the light of our true worth.With love and faith,Galina 💜
