What Happened, and Why?

We are made in God's image, and God is Love.
"I knew you," God tells us, before you were formed in the womb." We all were created by His Love, and come into this world with the need to love and be loved.
What happens if a person is not loved, or wanted? Even in the womb, the baby will feel emotions that are NOT LOVE. Rejection, anxiety, fear, hate, anger, confusion, ---all strong negative emotions are felt, and are imprinted on the being of this unborn child.
After birth, if not loved, if not accepted or raised in an positive enviroment, either at home or in the social world---any individual will do whatever they can to be loved. To be noticed, to be understood, to be approved of: well. just to be loved. Is this the reason why some are born with the desire to seek another--female or mom; or male or dad that they felt unloved by? Understanding is need to choose not to judge or hate anyone.
A person, from little on up, will have ugly behaviors that get them noticed. Signs too, of a person's need to be loved; tattoos, peircings, make up, attire that has 'wow factor' ----a person does all or some of this --hoping to be noticed, accepted and loved. Bold actions and loud opinions---gets people noticed, don't they?
As a person grows, if bullied, teased, made fun of, put down, ---then this person will seek comfort in what will be addictive and unhealthy. Food, alcholol, drugs, smokes, and technical toys and games: all bringing false love in to a lifestyle that will lead eventually to an early death. For a person without love, or, "without purpose will wither and die." Worse yet, most will be hating themselves and the being they are!
To end this cycle of 'what is wrong with me' spirit---There is only one answer--well three. We must seek answers or wisdom to why? Examine your past, family history and then discern what to do to be set free of the negative inner perception of who you are or why you were born this way.
Crucial to healing is 'Forgiveness" and 'letting go." This can be a very hard decision and action to follow through on. Forgiveness of others, yourself and most importantly: God. Yes God, for He gave all free will, and therefore--allows all to choose to live in anger and hate that brought suffering into your lives. This and only this processs will lead you to happiness, peace of mind, and then love and joy of life!
Seek the Lord and you will find the love you long for. Seek the Lord and you will be led by His Light of knowledge. You will know a life of fulfillment and purpose---just by being aware of this awesome gift you are---and you are!!!
You must come to believe you are!! All of your life is a part of creating the gift you are. Only deep understanding can bring this realization into your whole being, and give you the peace you long for. Believe that you came from Perfect Love. You are created and sent to this earth, as His gift to all, and you are loved.
This will help you understand. A masterpiece is created of tiny details. Strokes of paint, a pencil, and inspirtation. A 1500 piece puzzle-becomes a WOW factor when put together on piece at a time by patient hands. Then that gorgeous dress, or outfit---one stitch at a time is, first inspired and then sewn by very gifted hands. How about the instrument? Only a true muscian can pick it up and play the music another wrote and another crafted to begin with.
His Perfect Design of you gave you all your talents as a part of this Masterpiece you are.
Only by God's Perfect Design are we the gift to be blessed, broken, and given. When we give of ourselves to help another or love another---then we will know we are Love and are loved. Another word of wisdom, "Speak only the words you want to hear and those words of love will be spoken to you."
Born the youngest of nine children, raised VERY Catholic across the street from Immaculate Heart of Mary church and school—Mom and Dad led by example and word their FAITH in God and saw to it that I was given 12 years of Catholic Education. (Mount St. Mary’s Academy/1965)
But, most importantly, because of my parents’ spiritual renewal after attending Cursillo Weekends, I too went on a retreat at our beloved Subiaco Abbey in Arkansas and there, at age 20, gave my life totally, surrendering all to my Lord and best Friend. This was my “Pentecostal” event that left me, like all the early Christians, on fire with God’s love and forever changed.
My husband Robert and I have been married for 54 this year in a marriage arranged by God. We have 8 children, two in heaven, 24 grandchildren, and 28 great-grandchildren. The story of our life together can be found in a book titled “My Journey, My Cross-As the Journals End,” published by Westbow Press . Our life together has been one awesome up and down roller coaster ride which enriched my heart with so many of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. I have found that the only way, Wisdom, Understanding, Words of Knowledge, Discernment, and Healing can be received is first by experiencing in your life the hurts of others. (and you yourself a sword will pierce)* so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.” Luke 2 v 35.
God has blessed me also many other talents and skills--but sometimes, blessings/gifts can and have caused problems or conflict in my life, as I am human and all too quickly that part of me shows up. Thank You God that You also show up!
Because of the many ways that He has rescued me, and taught me through my trials and tribulations and continuous cries for “Help”--- a weekly podcast radio show called “It’s Me, God” can still be found on www.radiotitans.com
