Love in your heart

One day I was confronted with this, let's say set of words, "Love you've installed in your heart..." At first glance what came up into my mind is all about a love developed in the heart for a person romantically so dear.


But a developed loved? Like that of a picture that underwent in a developing process? I remembered a story from someone whose house was flooded by the recent typhoon Reming that hit Luzon, she said that almost all the stuffs of her family were washed out by the water raging from the overflowed river in their town. She even shared that their wedding pictures were all watered and how she tried to dry those one by one just to preserve the remaining memories she can recover, although images were already vaguely viewable. With this I came to realize that not only time can give a fading effect on a developed picture but sometimes unexpected events, such as that flood that happened, can also wipe out the image that a picture can hold.


Now how about for a developed love? Can time and certain events fade it away as well? I tried going through the set of words again, and this word "installed" just lingered in my head. This made me ask, is love something that is really installed in the heart or is it some other thing around? This sounds like as if the heart is something empty and needs to undergo some installations before it can function.


Now I feel my own heart, as if it would like to speak for itself and react to what is said by this set of words. Since it involves the heart, my heart knows more than what my mind thinks.


The heart is pre-installed with love, they come in bundle even before it is assembled into the human body. So love is innate to each one of us. God created every man in own His image. God is love and so are we.


We are created out of love and with love already within our hearts. What the heart needs is no longer to be installed with love but rather to be opened in order for the love inside to come out.


There maybe times when you cannot feel love, check on your heart, maybe there are somethings that clutter around it, covering the love inside. The negatives vibes, feelings of fear, doubt, anger, hate, envy, pride and others are some that hides away the love in your heart. So there is a need to disclose your heart and one by one unclog the clutters to let love flows from the inside out.


Maybe this is also why there is one image of Jesus showing his heart outside of Him. To tell us that if we have a clear heart, we can give of love boldly and freely flow to others. What do you think about it? 


Allow me rephrase this set words to say, "Love you've unleashed in your heart..." Just a thought, what a wonderful feeling it would give us if we just unleash love and let it flow in and out of us freely, unclogging our hearts of the unnecessary stuffs. No need for installations.


Everyday let's check on our hearts, is love freely coming out from it or does it needs some unblocking to let love just flow?
