There are many of us which have a scar in our heart. A scar that healed but remained. Or a scar that never healed. This valentine's the heart aches. The thought of that that hurt and resentment is remembered. It can be close friends, boy/girl friends, family, or whoever it is related to the day of love. So we hink i have nothing to celebrate about. I don't care. It's just another normal day for me. So we just hang out. Or maybe some come to friendship night. And what?
Are we there because we have nowhere else to go? Because we dont't have a date? Because we have nothing better to do? Because we want to have fun? Think about it . There is this greatest friend we can ever have. The best of the best who wants the best for us. Who will never betray us. Who wil never forsake us. We have a date. It is a matter of whether we want to accept that invitation. That date and relationship that will never end unless you yourself end it. Even then He will pursue you and try to win you back.
Everyone of us have a date tonight! That best friend, none other than Jesus is calling us for a date. Yeah it's hard to see. Hard to know at times if he is there, etc . But you have a date. You are not alone. He wants to come and heal those scars. Those pains that are stopping us from celebrating valentine's. Those thoughts that valentine's are only for couples, he wants to show it's not true. It may seem weird or whatever that God wants to date you. Haha. I was like why the word date?
Anyway... True many of us know that valentine's day is not only for couples but also for friendship, for family and all. But we don't really bother. Think..this day you do something special for loved ones. So what about him? If it wasn't for Him there wouldn't even be love. It may be S.A.D day for many of us. But we all have that date.
Now the question is... DO YOU ACCEPT?
Nicely said...So true on wat has been said up there. The last bit there...that say if it wasnt for Him there wouldnt even be love, that part i think is so true coz the bible says God is love. And in every wedding(ok, mayb almost every wedding), part of 1 Corinthians 13 would be read. But i would like the whole chapter...tht goes:
"If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, i am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if i have a faith that can move moutains, but have not love, I am nothing. I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, i gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self- seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love does never fails. But where thre are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there are knowledge, they will pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me. Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now i know in part; then i shall know fully, even as i am fully known.
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love."
On Vday, we celebrate love. But what we celebrate year after year is just man to man love. What about the Creator's love? The love of everything? God is love but we dun celebrate Him. The last line there : But the greatest of these is love. That i feel is referring to God the almighty. And how love is also mentiong above. But to reflect to our love as a couple, is it the same? Are we patient, kind? Do we protect, trust, hopes and persevere? Are we not always envy, boastful, proud, rude, self- seeking, angered, keep records of wrong? Well we can always say no we dun, but the truth is at a new beginning of a relationship it does not happen to us...but as the times goes and circumstances and things/matter/ problems comes into the picture are we not always that way?
Though i pursue a relatonship like every normal person would want to. But i found a love that i can always celebrate about....not only on Feb 14th, but everyday of my life. This love that has been make known to me as kid....found when i was a teen...this love that has always been with me even when i at times rejected it. This love that i know that so nice and sweet just like every girl would love to have is rite with us always trying to reach to us, but we always ignored it cause we cant see it, we ignored it. That love that i've found is God.
Now i guess u must be pretty bored with wat i just posted eh??...i bet u were hoping to read something interesting for valentine?!...if it disappoints u i'm sorry readers...but never the less i wont always go on a full blast sharing eh??... hehe...interesting thing happen for vday presents that i prepare.
Now first thing first i send 2 boxes of angel back to Msia...apparently one reached the destionation while the other didnt....the one that reach was this...
Nice eh?? well i told Hitomi it was gift initally...but then as i chated with her and vday was around the corner that time..i just told take it as a vday gift...so..c wat that angel was holding?? A star!! and if u hav been reading u will know wat Plan A was....in Plan A...i was also planning on giving stars...haha...so i guess this year my vday gift was stars=)
I watched He's Just Not That Into You. Well it is a chick flick, before u come criticising me...be fore warned that i'm a movie freak...i watch every movie!! I dun care whether is a chick flick/action/adventure/ horror/ comedy, etc..i will still watched it. Now back to that movie=) I can somehow relate to the movie for the guy part. And i think is a good movie if guys and girls wants to know more about how the opposite sex thinks and works when comes to relationship. So go watch it with someone special...it will be a nice movie to watch, though vday has pass...but i know many will still celebrate after it.
