Life in the Jungle

Life without love is like life in the jungle. What is life like in the jungle? You are constantly afraid of what might come to you. You are isolated, not receiving any support from anywhere.

Desires

Desires are not the problem

Satisfying them is

God says: tell me all your desires and I will fullfil them

But people don't do this

They turn to others expecting someone else to fullfil them

Expectations are another kind of desire

Expecting to be praised, or recognized, or approved of

are the signs of little spiritual accomplishment

Over time, this will deplete you

Your work will turn superficial, for namesake only

and you will be distanced from the true blessings of others

God's pure desire is that we now become like Him

Our only desire should now be that, too.
