There is this auto guy who takes Matthew for his piano lesson.. every thursday
Here we were…. already late …waiting for this man to come ,jumped into his auto moved little only to realize that the fuel tank was empty!!!!
I experienced a range of emotions from frustration to irritation ..

The demands of life probably kept him from taking the time to fill the tank earlier. “I can go a little further without refueling”…so he thought… Isn’t this just the way we treat our internal "love tanks". We run around at high octane speeds, barely slowing down to get a re-fill and then one daywe break down - we’re tired, we’re emotional, we’re depressed, we’re apathetic, we’re unfulfilled, we’re sad - it needn’t have come to this if only we had just

But beware the pitfalls of trying to fill the legitimate needs of an empty love tank in unhealthy ways. It can guide us to the wrong fueling station, leaving us with that familiar feeling of emptiness.
How do you then fuel your love tank? You start by letting God love you. God is the ultimate source for a full "love tank".
If we did not get enough love when we were growing up, or if we are not getting enough love now, we don't have to go through the rest of our lives with an empty "love tank."
Your search for love is over AT CALVARY .!!!! Have you found, the only true spiritual gas station for your tank? Do you need a trip to this altar once again , so that he can replenish your spiritual love tank. Remember that God loved you so much that he sent his son to die for you. Now that's real fuel. That's what keeps you going
Don’t get from others what you can only get from God God loves you more than you can ever fathom. And God wants to pour His love into your Love Tank.
The only prerequisite HE requires of His children to experience His amazing love is for us to open up our hearts to Him

    We are all imperfect, and these imperfections are what define us as humans, but some flaws can be lethal and escort one to their death.

This change in perception of the definition of love allows people to have a better chance of obtaining love and having a better sense of self. With the conventional notions of love and relationships, love becomes more complex by giving people the sense of longing.…
