What God Thinks About the Love We May Have?

Believe me or not, but I have been a pretty awesome mentor for mom in her marriage, for friends in their relationship, and yes, I also helps my brother in a need of relationship counselor. (Thank God)

Love - it's such a simple word physically but needs a lifetime lesson to get what it means. It keeps a beautiful mystery and for those who believe in love, they are a keeper! I could say it's sometimes harmful like causing a bleed, a tear, but (please) don't forget how it can give a butterfly riot in your stomach. Right?

I connect my daily element to what God thinks about it and how should I react towards it so that it pleases Him more and more. After all, people frequently miss to be the love keeper after experiencing quarrel, hatred, misunderstanding, jealousy, rudeness, boastfulness and so on. They feel like so tired of being situated in a growth zone, cause human prefers to the comfort zone. However it is our choice. Then think how's yours?

It's a quite long time actually that I've found a song that could possibly represents one of many messages God thinks about the love He wants us to own : Love Is Not A Fight - Warren Barfield.
Here's the lyrics..
Love is not a place to come and go as we please
It's a house we enter in, then commit to never leave
So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
Work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is a peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave may God send angels to guard the door
No love is not a fight,
But something worth fighting for
To some love is a word

That they can fall into
But when they're falling out
Keeping that word is hard to do
Love will come to save us
If we'll only call
He will ask nothing from us
But demand we give our all
(Yes, I will fight for you, would you fight for me?)

I would like to add some more that I strongly disagree to a divorce because God Himself told us in Matthew 19:6 "So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore, what God has joined together let man not separate."

I have faith that what the bible says will never go wrong, it will always be applicable in any eras, including the second we live at the moment. It is people who change; they're following the trends that root from nowhere. Let me say a divorce is like selling a car because it's out of gas and trying to look for a new one, then it will continuously be the same cycle. So, if the car runs out the gas, just fill the gas up. Then you know how it works. 

It is essential for people in Christ to search His messages because sometimes we need to not totally follow our heart, as we are only a human;we have flesh and we may go to the wrong path. Nonetheless, what we need to do is trusting Him wholly and following Him.
And why love is worth fighting for?

1 Corinthians 13:4-7
"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. Love does not demand its own way. Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance."
You also can look up to other bible verses concerning this matter.

His Calling

I know it's been a while that I've posted anything. A lot has been going on and perhaps I took most of time to get rest because this holiday was "in between" : between the toughest semester and earlier college routine for the short semester. Yes, I would say this holiday is shorter than it's supposed to. I made this exquisite Christmas month for quality time with Christ, family, boyfriend, friends, and (definitely) myself. It's been an overwhelming days to be true. 

Well, it's indeed my first post in this brand new year, 2013! May this new year be the period that stretches you to limits you thought impossible & may it bring forth fruit and growth beyond measure. May God richly bless y'all. (Amen)

I've been considering what purpose God has put in me after reading a phrase that "as long as you breathe, God has a purpose in you." And then I was like looking to myself, that I thought, as who was NOT in a capability to do great things for the Lord. This phrase was a smack to me until I lil bit feeling confident "Okay, I must be good enough to response His purpose."

I found a glimpse light that shines to this spinning question. By the times, I see the way God wants us on earth to know about His determination. It is about having a good response toward His calling. Well, I believe each person has their own purpose, it may not always be good in humans' eyes, but when this person decides to give good response, s/he will witness a favorable outcome :)


We frequently orient ourselves on how close happiness to hedonism. To be honest, it doesn't work that way; too shallow, that it is always the rich who is happy, the skinny who is joyful, the pretty who owns the smile, the sovereign who deserves the world and so on. We won't ever be satisfied to live that way. Because everyone will have their own purpose, I repeat. So, I'd rather praise the light than curse the dark. Surely, we struggle to get a better life, but if it doesn't work the way we want, be thankful! Still, God is for us. Trust how every person life inspire others and what it takes to be called as a "blessing".

It was a tiny share for you that floods my mind, I hope it can be an unveiling way through our perspectives. Let us start this year with a constant positive mind about His purpose. Own a sincere happiness and embrace His calling through your life :)
