"Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not love, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not love, it profits me nothing." -1 Corinthians 13:1-3
My heart yearns for you to understand, my dear brother and sister, that no matter what you have or have achieved, if you do not have an unselfish, selfless, and sacrificial love in your heart-one that seeks and pursues the better good and well-being of others-then you are absolutely useless to humanity and have nothing of eternal or permanent relevance.
The world stands or falls on the giving or denial of love. Nations, families, relationships, churches, and organizations rise or fall based on the giving and non-giving of love. It is high time we began showing and demonstrating genuine and sincere concern for the feelings and well-being of others. It's time we started expressing unselfish, selfless, and sacrificial love toward one another.
A Call to Action
It's time to rid ourselves of selfishness, self-centeredness, strife, unforgiveness, bitterness, and all other toxic behaviors from our families, societies, and nations. It's time we stand together in the spirit of brotherhood, insisting on and demanding the good of one another.
We must say NO to all forms of social, cultural, religious, tribal, and racial divisions. We are all one family under heaven. Whether or not we accept it, the success or failure of one of us affects all of us. It is our collective responsibility to come together, hand in hand, to build a better world for ourselves and future generations.
Living Beyond Ourselves
I wholeheartedly agree with Dr. Myles Munroe of blessed memory, who said, "The value of life is not in its duration, but in its donation." Creflo Dollar aptly stated, "Prosperity is not in the acquisition of wealth, but in the impact of one's life." Joseph Prince, in his own way, advised, "Don't use people to love money. Rather, use money to love people."
If we destroy ourselves through the relentless pursuit of selfish desires, we will leave this world in a worse condition than we found it. Innocent children are abandoned on the streets, young men and women are forced into crime, prostitution, and other forms of social vice. Families are torn apart, eligible youths are left unemployed, and our nations' political systems are decaying. Millions are living in Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) camps across the globe.
The world is decaying, and you and I have the key to the solution.
The Challenge
I challenge you today to arise and make a difference in your world.
I challenge you to go out each day and put a smile on somebody's face.
I challenge you to lend a helping hand to anyone in need, regardless of who they are.
I challenge you to release the hurts, rejections, disappointments, and betrayals, and choose instead to love.
I challenge you to become the best version of yourself, for the benefit of us all.
The Solution to a Decaying World
In a world filled with conflict, division, and despair, the power of love can bring about true transformation. Love is the solution that the world needs. It is love that heals broken relationships, restores families, and unites divided communities.
By embracing love in its purest form-unselfish, selfless, and sacrificial-we become the change that the world desperately needs. Together, we can make a difference.
Let's make the choice to love, because the world depends on it.

This book is borne out of the leading of the Holy Spirit to reveal the panting and desire of our heavenly Father’s heart as it concerns His plan for the redemption and restoration of humanity and the maximization of our inheritance in Him. It reveals the desire of God for an active intimate relationship with every human being. This has been the plan of God for His children (human beings) to know and walk with Him. In our journey to the Father’s heart, there’s only one highway to the rich treasures of His love and grace. Everyone must pass through this highway into the Father’s heart. This highway is Jesus Christ, and I’ve endeavored throughout this book to remain on this highway while calling men and women, boys and girls, old and young to journey with me to the Father’s heart. This is a journey you will never regret and for which you will be eternally grateful. In Welcome Aboard: a journey to the Father’s heart, you are going to see clearly, among other things; • The goodness and unconditional love of God for humanity in the perfect atonement of Jesus Christ, His beloved Son, on Calvary, • Your privileged call in the gospel to walk with the Lord daily and experience the full and complete benefits of the gospel, and • Your true identity and positioning as a believer in Jesus Christ according to the revelation of scriptures. I have divided this book into three main sections. Each section deals with a particular theme and revelation of scripture. Each page of this book is saturated with scriptural truths to help you experience the love and presence of the Father through Jesus Christ in a new way.

"You're mine, little puppy," Kylan growled against my neck. A soft gasp escaped my lips as his lips brushed my skin.

Kylan's eyes darkened, but the smirk on his lips exposed his amusement. "You and I both know we can't fight this, Violet," he said, gripping my wrist. "You're my mate." "And yet you don't want me," I replied. "You told me you were ashamed of me, that l'd never be your queen, that you'd never love me. So please, accept my rejection and let me go." "Never," he whispered, his grip tightening as he pulled me closer. "Soon enough, you'll be begging for me. and when you do-I'll use you as I see fit and then I'll reject you."
