Welcome to Dr. Maloof Online. I wanted to end the year with a special letter that I have written about Agape Love. I wrote this letter from the heart. Please feel free to forward this issue to friends, family and associates! Thank you in advance, for your readership and passing this valuable information along! Wishing you a blessed holiday and a prosperous New Year!

Pure bliss, love with all your heart without expectation, love just because. Aren’t we all looking for love in our lives? Whether you are single, married, young, or old, love is the universal language that always prevails. Why is there so much loneliness in the world? Why is everyone looking for love and not many seem to find it? Some of the loneliest people are married and sleeping the in the same bed. In order to receive agape love, you have to change! You have to open your heart to not only give out agape love but to receive it! God has unconditional love for us every second of every moment of every day ready for us to receive at anytime. Most of us never take advantage of God’s pure agape love for us. If we can receive his love, then we can fill every single cell of our body with God’s love, then there is no room for anything else. God loves, God heals, Love heals. Now, we can have true love for every single part of our body and ourselves. Now, we can spread this agape love to every man, woman, child, we see. Imagine how that would make you feel. Some of us have built walls around our hearts because we have been hurt in the past and we slowly close our hearts and we continue to get hurt and build a bigger wall. Soon, we are closed in and wonder why we are not happy inside. Yes, we are living day to day, but where is the loving glow that should spark within us? It has been crushed by past hurts and we need to break the walls down! Start chipping away and letting go of past hurts, forgive those who have hurt you and send them love. (Easier said than done, but continue to do it and it will get easier).Open your heart! Stop living in the past. What’s done is done. God has forgiven you so why not forgive others and start loving again. Begin today and see the changes that take place. See how others around you will start treating you. Love needs to begin with you. Accept the agape love challenge: Receive God’s love in your heart.

1. Love every part of yourself.
2. Forgive all the people who have hurt you in the past.
3. Break down the wall surrounding your heart.
4. Agape love toward every person you meet

You will reap so many rewards from this because love is the most important thing in the world. The most important piece of clothing you must wear is love. Love is what binds us all together in perfect harmony (Collosians 3:14-15). This holiday season share yourself with others. It is not about the material gifts but your actions and how you treat others with the respect and love that God has shown you. I pray that you take the agape love challenge and share your love with others this holiday and start the New Year with an open heart. May God bless you tenfold as you begin your new life with him.

Love…Blessings…Peace… Dr. Catherine L. Maloof www.drmaloof.com 2003
