Are you hiding from love But expecting it? ❤️ In this powerful episode of Fearless Conversations, Gerald Fears unpacks one of the greatest relationship traps: praying, hoping, and waiting for love — while doing nothing to prepare for it.

So many people believe God will simply drop love at their doorstep. But the Bible is clear: “Faith without works is dead” (James 2:17). Just as you prepare for a job interview, save and plan for a house, or test-drive before buying a car, love also requires preparation. Without healing your past, building spiritual maturity, and learning to love yourself, you’ll keep expecting love but never truly experiencing it.

This conversation digs deep into how expectation without preparation leaves people disappointed, and why God honors those who become ready vessels for love. Drawing from the parable of the wise and foolish virgins (Matthew 25), Gerald shows how unprepared hearts miss the very blessings they pray for.

🔑 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why waiting on love without preparing is spiritual laziness, not faith

• How to shift from expecting love to becoming love

• Why ego masquerades as love and keeps us empty

• The role of spiritual discipline and the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23) in preparing for real connection

• How God uses preparation to align you with the love He has for you

If you’ve been waiting for love but not working for it, this episode will challenge you to step into responsibility and faith-driven action. Love isn’t missing. God is love (1 John 4:8), and He’s already given you the capacity to prepare for it.
