I recently went to the place where all the padlocks are. If you have never visited Liverpool this is the place right next to Albert dock between the museum and Albert docks. These locks contain messages of hope, love and even proposals etc. I stood and read a few messages just trying to remember their visit over where I love you or thank you or even remembrance. I don’t know who started but I’ve looked into the history. It's called the “love locks at Albert dock”. It's supposed to signify an unbreakable bond of love so it sits differently now doesn’t it. It apparently started during the Second World War when women would write the name of their loved ones before they went to war. I’m wondering if I can find a great great relative. Simply beautiful as well and sad all at the same time. What could be more strong than a lock hey. I wonder if they put the lock on and throw the keys away. I’m not sure why I’m talking about this but maybe I will understand soon. Makes me think how important words and declarations are. Those women would write their name on lock in the thought they would never see them again. Sounds a bit deep but in reality it was the truth. It makes me think how much are we willing to give up for love to lock away and throw away the key etc. In the bible Abraham was willing to give up his son of promise to God. Moses left his family to go back to a land that he grew up in and people hated him. It makes me think of promises that I hold on to that need to be given back to God. Or what is the thing that God is asking you to do ? God could be asking you to give up something or to leave or even to stay in the place you’re in. What is he asking you to shut the lock on. It could be a bad attitude or mindset or even judgment. It could even be an opening to say goodbye to the past hurts and look to the future. I don’t know what it is but I hope you are willing to change.
Hope you guys are well and God bless xx
