Love is always listening for what is vital in every situation. It does not get side tracked with trivialities that will cause it to lose focus on its objective which is to progress towards healing, restoration and joy. Listening is the main tool Love employs to help it determine the best course of action to meet you where you are without judgment or prejudice.
People who have experienced severe trauma to their heart/mind are usually the most challenging for Love to touch with its transforming abilities of healing and restoration. It is most difficult when the heart becomes hardened by unforgiveness and anger sets in so deep that it causes the heart to shrink, in a sense, not letting anything good in or out. But Love is not intimidated by this; it is constantly inspired by its Love for you and will give itself for you if necessary.
John 15:13
Love will always wait for Truth and will not proceed without it; they are eternal companions (best friends, if you like). Love is always listening for Truth in everything, in every life and in every situation. Love never shrinks from Truth, instead, it converses with it in order to get to the very bottom of a thing so real progress can be made. Love requires Truth to perform optimally. Those unwilling to deal with Truth will remain imprisoned.
I pray this is not the condition of your heart, but if it is... Love is asking you to... "Open your heart and stretch it"!
Unsure of how to get started.....begin by getting as honest as you can about whatever it is. Now, this may take some time because you have to deal with Truth and we know it can be offensive. After that is settled, start honestly looking at YOURSELF to determine what you can do to show Love (it may be difficult, but do it anyway). The longer you deny/ignore what is true, the more difficult it will be for Love to transform you and make you whole. Let Love set you free today! John 8:32
