Love Under New Management

Lift up every voice and sing! Give God your best praise because He is worthy.  There is someone who is praying for you right now.  There is someone who is asking God to be on your side today.  Someone is on bended knees asking God to send a Heavenly Host to protect you from anyone or anything that would seek to harm you on this day.  God is listening to those prayers and He will be with you today and always. Lift up your voice and praise Him for His goodness.  Praise Him for being faithful to His children.  Once again, God is worthy to be praised.

Good day to you all!  Where is your concentration today?  What are you focused on?  Remember that thoughts become things, so be careful of what stays on your mind!

Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth. 1 John 3:18

You deserve somethin' better, " I kept tellin' myself
Just be patient, true love you'll find
I finally found someone who became my friend
And in a matter of time
Real love stepped in-“Love Under New Management”-Miki Howard

Sometimes a change of management is needed.  There are times when the old way of doing things is not working the way that it ought to work.  Sometimes we get stuck in a particular way of doing things because those ways have become habit and are now comfortable.  We don’t even have to think about what we are doing.  The current management is happy with the results, but upper management is not pleased.  The home office is looking at the big picture, and it says that a change needs to be made immediately.  The home office sends down a referendum for sweeping change.  There is a note that says that current management is making the company look bad.  The current management is not treating its workers right, and it doesn’t care about the customers.  Something has to change.  New management is needed.

Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him. John 14:21

Experience is a good teacher
It takes someone like me to know
All the little games people tend to play
Some call it love
It never has a chance to grow-“Love Under New Management” Miki Howard

Dear Reader I want to encourage you to embrace sweeping change.  God wants us to love each other as He loves us.  God wants us to love unconditionally, and forgive unconditionally.  The world was not managing love correctly so the home office in Heaven sent down a reformer by the name of Jesus.  He brought about sweeping changes, so now love is under new management.  Dear Reader you may need to make some sweeping changes yourself.  I know that I have had to make some sweeping changes to the way that I love, and forgive.  Dear Reader the old way just wasn’t representing the Jesus that loved me so now there is love under new management.  Jesus set the example when they beat Him, and hung Him on the cross and as they mocked Him, Jesus asked God to forgive them because they did not know what they were doing.  How many times have we thought that we were unable to forgive someone, all the while forgetting who has forgiven us. You are not a bad person, your love just needs new management.  Forgive the way that you want to be forgiven.  Love the way that you would want to be loved.  Let us not love in word and talk, but in deed, and truth.  In other words, talk is cheap, and actions speak louder than words.  God’s love is eternal and covers you every day.  Try as hard as you can to make the love that you give reflect the love that you have been given.

You are beautiful, loved, and blessed
