Love in the original sense involves the expression of wisdom.
What is called love in the modern world is often just a natural
emotional response to people's sexuality.

[/quote]I have taken to capitalizing Love when referring to
Biblical, agape Love and leaving it small letter love when
talking about the world version of love.

He is the only real Father I've ever had. The only one who loved
me, comforted me, protected me, and communicated with me in his
own way. He knew what I needed. He made me feel so loved. And I
loved him as I still do. I just can't say enough good things
about him.

My dad beat my mom and I saw and heard every time. I can't stand
people yelling and screaming and cussing because of those very
early years. He was a bad example throughout my life and he is
still very selfish today. My mom has been a blessing and a saint
to so many people and she taught me love. In reality, we are
alone in this world except for the love of God. Although having
a spouse is not being alone but you know what I mean. When we're
on our deathbeds only God can comfort us.

What tragedies some of you have had being brought up with pain.
Awful parents who should never even behave that way, especially
around their children. It's a miracle that you all turned out
as well as you have.
I had everything growing up, except a father who had to work
overtime too much, so that he could feed his family. But his
absence caused me to long for a father who would teach me
sports, and be a less distant father. God fulfills the needs
that I have instead.
But, I had a loving family and learned about God early. My mom
told my dad that us children had to be raised as Christians, or
she would not marry him. So, even though my dad was Lebanese
and my mom had quite an ancestry, we children were brought up
with Christian names and church. I was supposed to be named
Mohammed, but my mom said, it has to be Michael, instead. Also,
my dad never hit my mom, ever. But he spanked us too much with
a thick leather 'razor strap.' It didn't help out my
relationship with him.
I also wanted a brother very much, because I had 3 sisters to
play with. It was a real bummer sometimes. But, every one of
us had a pretty good life together. This is getting long.
Ciao, for now.

that is awesome...well not about the coffee....lol
I wish I could see God as a good Father and as I said, I am
slowly learning to but it has been a long and hard journey to
feel loved at all in any relationship. I grew up with no one
that showed love....I had some grandparents that loved me but
long story short they seldom showed it. I grew up not only
being told I was unworthy of love but wondering what I did that
was so terrible as a young child that I wasn't even worthy of a
parent, sibling, or grandparents love. I still battle this
sometimes and it shows in my relationship with Christ for I
would serve Him to the day I die if only to hear Him say "well
done"...even if He sent me to hell. I know He won't but the
point is that I don't think much about what He gives me, only
what I can give Him. This is a remnant of what I was taught
about not being worthy of love if that makes sense.
[/quote]
I don't know. It's always been easy for me to see God as a good,
loving Father. That really saved me during a lot of abuse. I
felt like no one loved me except for God.

My stepfather was like that. My mother lost several babies
because he beat her so badly during pregnancy. Then she chose to
stay with him when given a choice to leave him or lose us to
foster care. That was hard for me to accept.

Hope Is Essential

Hey All, I just finally got to check this out again and it is
very extremely inspirational for a soul to be blessed with these
blissful words. I hope that everyone at this Forum will check
this out. Is there any way, PJ, that you can tell others to
check out. The video about God being your Father is sensational
and filled with wisdom. It can pick anyone up, it seems. How
do we advertise this on FEF here, and TF there?? I don't know
how to do it. Maybe pj or Lori would know how to do it and even
find the time. God's Wonder Be Exalted Through You!!

Sometimes God expresses His love for us through trials and
