Many stories always revolve around love. and usually the underlying question is what is love? Love can be defined as blind and lovers cannot see their ways, It is a mutual feeling between two lovers . It can be indirectly directed to humans and other living things and in the unknown field of spirituality. As early as childbirth upon coming out into the world , he was born out of love from his parents there is no human being without a man and a woman. When the sperm of a man is united with the egg of a woman inside her womb it develops into a human being. That is the physical union but there is another reason why humans exist on Earth due to creation. In the beginning God the creator of the universe which is totally void declared light and darkness called day and night it became so. Then he declared the bodies of water and the bodies of land until he put the living things to live on land and sea. Living animals and plants on land and sea. Air water and fire is there to sustain life to see the beauty and the nature of His creation. The four seasons balances the cosmopolitan temperatures to maintain the ecosystem of the living things on Earth. Then God notice that no one will appreciate the beauty of His creation until He creates someone like Him. From a handful of clay He designed the human body according to His image and likeness and named Him Adam who is male. Being alone God thought to bring forth a companion to Adam to be his companion and partner living on Earth. When Adam took his rest and in deep slumber God took one of his ribs to become the female human being. This made God happy and satisfied when Adam and Eve live in the Paradise that He created. But there is one favor God ask from them. In the Garden of Eden there is a certain tree bearing fruits that he prohibited them to eat. They may die if they eat that fruit. Adam and Eve didn't know why they cannot eat that fruit until a third party in the form of a snake induce Eve to eat the fruit, the fruit of good and evil. They only realized when God is calling them and began to be aware of their surroundings covered their naked bodies with leaves and tried to hid themselves from God. They had been pointing to each other why they have eaten the forbidden fruit. God knew who is the first to give in seeing Adam haven't swallowed the fruit as He stop him telling Him having violated His command to fend for himself to live by his own. He needed to stretch his muscles in order to feed himself. Eve has been sentence to a greater suffering that painful childbirth is upon her that means she may live or die when bearing a child. That is how God became very angry that He drive them away from paradise. That is the downfall of man. These kind of sufferings happened to the descendants of Adam and Eve through the ages. Good and bad behaviour clash among man. But it is said that good prevails over any wrongdoing. having a confused mind man has been deceived all along by the ruler of this world. Again God has intervened by sending His own Son Jesus Christ to spread His gospel meaning good news to all the people on Earth. In the book written by scribes inspired by God He will send His only Son Jesus Christ to spread His new commandment of Love. That God chooses the woman a man would love and he will be the only one whom he will live with throughout his life, which is also embodied in His commandment not to commit adultery. So there is no change what happened in the garden of Eden when the Third Party in the guise of a serpent planted the seed of being bad or evil. It is very rare to hear the genuine and purity of love coming from God. Even those who are going to exclusive religious schools to learn His pure and unblemish definition of Love, in that union of Love between a man and a woman there is always a tinge of stain in their relationships when their is jealousy and mistrust between them. Even those who has practice celibacy to make a promise to God only to serve Him there is a tendency due to temptations and the call of the flesh between a priest and one who entered the nunnery are force to get out and follow the dictate of their hearts. This is the physical love that they feel giving up the Godly love to serve God and to serve man. Servitude to help the needy hungry and destitute is also a calling from God. To attend to the sick in the hospital, to visit children in orphanages, Being a priest to lead the people in prayer during the Holy Mass is surely serving God, that he will serve God all his life dedicate himself in his parish. Registers baptisms weddings attends school meetings and organizes youth activities like tournaments. God's love is reflected in a man's character to be kindhearted, helpful and always do good to others. In all of his services until he opt to retire that means he has completed his vow of serving God and go back to his private life to rest and be thankful to God If a man loves a woman she must cherish her throughout his life. She is a gift from God to be his partner his lover and companion to face the challenges , trials and tribulations they meet in life. The worst thing to happen is the encounter of a third party either to the man or the woman. The Deceiver is always lurking to target someone and become his/her victim. A couple must raise their family based on pure love for each other. They must not join and mingle in a society where people doesn't know God at all. Faith in God and Trust in Him makes problems, worries easier to bear as Jesus Christ said, " Come to me for my burden is light" He will carry the burden for you. God's promise of Love sustains a peaceful and abundant life. Go back to the ancient family traditions to care for the elderly because they cared for you when they were young. Nurture the young minds with love and compassion as God has love us. A home is not a home without God. God's home is also in the hearts of man that's why no matter how sinful is a man when he repents God forgives his sins right away as Jesus said, " Repent and sin no more". The kingdom of God is different from the kingdom of man. God's Love will prevail throughout the ages and His kingdom on Earth will be establish at the right time.
