“Because I Love You”.

A phrase often thrown around yet often never meant. 

 “Because I Love You” is often told by the ones wearing masks of deception

Concealing their true intentions 

Blinded by selfishness 

The phrase “Because I Love You” should embody the essence of authenticity and genuine concern. 

Fueled by faith 

A reflection of Him

because He loves us

If potted with soil filled with lies and watered with manipulation then like a flower, with such toxicity, a relationship will wither away, but if potted with soil fertile with minerals to nurture both spirits and watered with benevolence then like a flower, with such compassion, a relationship will flourish in health.

And though much pain and sacrifice may be endured 

the phrase “Because I Love You” will mean more than it ever did before
