I Learnt We Have Been Created to Love and be Loved

Give, But Give Until It Hurts….I never understood the depth of this quote…until I met Suzy Ma’am. She made me understand that;

Pain and suffering have come into your life,

but remember pain, sorrow, suffering are but the kiss of Jesus – a sign that you have come so close to Him that He can kiss you.

There is a light in this world,

a healing spirit more powerful than any darkness we may encounter. We sometimes lose sight of this force when there is suffering, too much pain. Then suddenly, the spirit will emerge through the lives of ordinary people who hear a call and answer in extraordinary ways.

We need to find God,

and he cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature – trees, flowers, grass- grow in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence… We need silence to be able to touch our souls.

We must know that we have been created

for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.

 “Go out into the world today and love the people

you meet. Let your presence light new light in the hearts of people. People are unreasonable, illogical, and self-centered. Love them anyway. If you do good, people may accuse you of selfish motives. Do good anyway. If you are successful, you may win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway. The good you do today may be forgotten tomorrow. Do good anyway. Honesty and transparency make you vulnerable. Be honest and transparent anyway. What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway. People who really want help may attack you if you help them. Help them anyway. Give the world the best you have and you may get hurt. Give the world your best anyway.”

Thank you Ma ‘am for teaching me the truth about these things.
