You’ve probably asked yourself more than once: “Why did I give so much of myself in previous relationships? Why did I give my best and it wasn’t reciprocated?”
If this question keeps playing on your mind, pay close attention because the answer might surprise you.
Think about it: you’re not someone who walks around clueless. You lock your doors, you’re careful with your belongings, you don’t fall for obvious scams, and you can spot when someone is trying to sell you something just to hit a target.
Yet, when it comes to relationships, something changes. It’s as if all that wisdom gets tucked away into some unreachable drawer. Your heart charges ahead, you brush off past disappointments, and you give yourself completely — only to end up hurt all over again.
Why does this keep happening? The answer stems from a root of need.
This need is the longing to be loved, to feel valued and important in someone else’s life. While everyone needs love, some have never learned to satisfy that need in a healthy way. Instead, they rely heavily on the love and approval of others.
Before you can truly receive love from someone else, there are two essential types of love you must first embrace:
Without these, even the smallest gestures of affection can feel sufficient. But they are not, and they never will be.
When this root of need persists, it creates a recurring cycle: You give too much → You’re let down → You feel rejected → You either close yourself off or jump into another relationship hoping to find what was missing before.
The emptiness you feel is not caused by others, it comes from within and only God can fill it that void.
Many people in loving, stable relationships can sometimes feel an unhappiness they cannot explain. Some even sabotage what they do have, searching outside for what only God can place inside.
That’s why treating the root is so important. Bad roots produce bad fruits, no matter how good your intentions are. To see true change, you must first deal with the root.
This is exactly what our series, ‘Cutting off Bad Roots’ is designed to address. It takes place every week in the Love Therapy Seminars.
So, if you’re ready to break the cycle and heal from the inside out, here’s your invitation: join us at the Cathedral of Miracles, this Thursday at 8pm. It’s time to transform your love life from the roots upwards.
