Sex, Love, 'Despos'

What do you do when someone random adds you,
Asks you for sex, tells you she is feeling a bit emotional and sad...

If your first reaction is to:
1. Ignore her.
2. Delete her.
3. Ban her.

Then everything pastor has preached has fallen on deaf ears.
You simply dont have the foundation of loving God wholeheartedly,
Loving people fervently. Period.

*Apparently, 95% of the people Ive shared with so far, failed the test.

Dont talk about anointing for ministry or growth or impartation or revelation or encounters,
Without love, you are nothing.

Is that how Jesus wouldve reacted?

'Oh, but I forgot about it', then sad to say, if its not a natural response,
Then it was never a part of you in the first place.

The word has to be lived out, not just something you hear on a weekend.
More than that, it has to become YOU; Part of you.

Jesus fellowshipped with the prostitutes.
Here is someone whos looking for love, the need to satisfy her deepest emotional needs,
Just that searching the wrong places.

These are people with needs, they dont even sell their body.
And unlike most people, they have the courage to express their needs
And be honest about their weaknesses!

And mind you, Jesus fellowshipped with them.
He hanged out, spent time, chatted, bonded...with them.

If we cant even talk to someone with genuine needs,
How are we going to fellowship with the downcasts of society?

Of course if you're the opposite sex, no one's asking you to 'counsel', But at least show some love and acceptance. The least you could so is to feel for the person. If we cant even have the right emotions, how to execute the right actions?

If you just judge people by what they do or what they say,
Then whats the gift of discernment for?
You mean, you believe in a supernatural faith but live in a natural perspective?

Whether is it girls or guys, all of us have needs.
No problem is ever born with the solution at the same time.
It is something you have to seek and learn.
Even if it means falling, that is why we have the grace of God.

That when sin abounds, grace abounds even more.
So that through the needs and problems, we can be led to Christ.
And have the grace to overcome.

How can a person have the grace to overcome is he/she doesnt know the Grace-Giver?

Does it mean we have the freedom to do what we want?
Of course not.

Love is accepting people, to change them for the better.

Like ps preached a few weeks ago, do not live as if we are righteous in our own ways and shame those who have nothing.

If we cant have a heart of compassion for a world without a vision,
We totally missed out on the heartbeat of God.
We're merely just having the love for God without the love OF God.

Sometimes, it takes someone who has gone to the lowest,
To understand and appreciate people who are going through what we're going through.

Let us be faithful in the little things, in what belongs to another man :)
