My Broken Heart!!!!


Of a broken heart I sit and grieve. My soul has been torn from my body and mind. My eyes cry both night and day. My destroyed heart keeps pouring out such sad sorrow of my love gone away...Of a broken heart the pain is so great. My soul is empty, My mind is left searching for answers, My heart weary and sad. My spirit has died inside and out, looking for some comfort knowing there's none to be had...Of a broken heart I wonder why my love is gone. My soul is hurting so deep within. My head left sore from continuous weeping. My mind dwells on those sweet moments of when we were one. Memories go back to when we first met and life with my love was so much fun....Of a broken heart I could only live for my love. My soul is shattered and mourns day after day. The times we shared together were a blessing sent from Heaven. My love was my Angel in disguise. Oh, my sweet, my precious, my baby, my love, how can I ever say goodbye?..Of a broken heart I will miss my love for the rest of my life. My mind, my heart, my soul will never be the same without my love. I am empty within, I am lost, I am nothing, all I ever needed and wanted was "My Love"!

It was an important part of my life. To experience the rise and fall of myself in a few weeks related with something called love. Something that should be better treated carefully, but sometimes we failed to do that, resulting in painful moments. Yet even the painful moments could become meaningful if we could treat it as a good experience. Or to turn it into songs, books, or others. Day by day went by, I began to realize that I might not be a good person to stay beside her. and can't forget the words ''Hopeless'' she said to me, "So, this is the beginning of my broken heart time," I thought. Actually, the hardest part of that moment was not the broken heart itself. But the perception of the surroundings. Like when one night I turned the radio rather loud, my cousins easily related it with my broken heart. Though actually I like music since before having a broken heart. Yet when it was me who played the music, in our house, it was easily related to my way of releasing a broken heart. From my previous friend's experience of having a broken heart, I could learn that the important thing to do in such a broken heart moment is to make a priority. Actually it is also applied in other moments of life. Whereas by thinking that my priority was to make her happy, and I could not do that to her by keep on becoming her boy friend, then it would be better to let her with someone else. That was all.

This will be my last node, this phase of my life is over. Although my time on everything2 has been interesting it has some pain with it I want to rid myself of. I started noding due to love, and I'm stopping due to the lack there of. will never forget falling in love for the first time. Unfortunately all those people that told me I would get crushed were right. It took some time, it was a hell of a ride, but here I am, crushed. As realization as to what is happening enters your brain and it all clicks, your throat closes up, your chest feels crushed. You begin to go back over what has happened and you wish somehow you were wrong. I haven't felt anything more painful than needing someone that didn't need me. The person you were always true to doesn't need you any more. Maybe they even have someone new. Some pain is the kind you can ignore, other is apparent and takes your attention. This is worse, it's everywhere and nothing can shake it. I cry a lot and I feel very alone, my connection is gone, my soul is torn. It's my fault as much as hers, but still very painful. Someday maybe I'll be needed again. For now I'm alone. I don't regret falling in love, I regret not knowing what was happening until it was too late.

While in bigger radius, the priority of my life is to devote myself on God, so the others should be number two or number three or other. It is my responsibility to fill my life with important things, rather then merely suffering from a broken heart for a long time. And if I could fill my life by becoming useful to others, it would be much better.

What Love Means for me...


If God (love) is our nature then selfishness is dethroned. If we live in Love (God) we begin bearing the fruits of love, and the fruit of love will show by the actions, conduct and the Words that are born of love. The days of hating, jealousy, bitterness and having revenge in your Heart (spirit) are gone.


Love causes us to put others first, and it makes us tender, kind and gentle.
Love blesses those that persecute them.
Love prays for those that are their enemies.
Love never envy’s another in what they have, love rejoices with them.
Love doesn’t give someone stone when they ask for bread, they give them the Bread Of Life.
Love sees through the eyes of faith, not through the sense dominated eyes.
Love is the ability of God in us.
Love puts sweetness into giving and doing, and that fills the heart of the receiver with joy.
Love never fails.
Love is kind, even to the ones that have caused hurt.
Love binds relationships together.
Love makes one light-hearted, companionable and helpful.
Love is God’s cure for every ill.
Love is God in action.
Love edifies.
Love is the force of life.
Love is the life of the heart (spirit), and the heart (spirit) is the life of man.
Love redeems a wasted life and transforms it into beauty and usefulness.

An Everlasting Love - My Story -


We know that the whole world is seeking love, but the love that they have been finding is not fulfilling their longings.
Why do you think that so many divorces are running rampant? It would seem that Christian marriages would be everlasting. They should be but it lacks the most important ingredient and that is Agape (God kind of Love, which is unconditional).
People are still trying to love with human love, Human love is based on the five senses. Man can only provide a selfish type of love.

In the world today you see so much hatred, evil for evil. The world says I’ll love you if you are good to me but if you hurt me I will get you back. It starts a cycle, and before you know it resentment, rejection and rebellion join in. The next thing you know pride is knocking at the door. No one wants to take the first step to say I am sorry. Why is this? It is because the human nature thinks of self.


I have accidentaly joined to so many people that are hurting and it saddens me, but sometimes we can only see ourselves, as the one’s hurting. We are the victims and cannot get past that. I am here to tell you that even when we are the victims we are hurting someone else and are not even aware of it because of being wrapped up in self.
I can say these things because I have been there. There were times in my life that I was so blinded by hurt, I could not see anything else. I could not see that my family was hurting, my cousins were hurting and even my friends. I got to the point that I thought all of my friends were using me, and a lot of them were, but I allowed it. If I kept allowing hurts to come, I did not have to take responsibility in my life. I could live and exist in self-pity, hurt, anger and etc.

All my life I would give love, I love to help people and people always needed help. I was giving what I thought was real love, but one day, my human love went bankrupt. I did not want to love anymore. I went to counseling and was told that I was a man that loved too much. I actually went home and prayed that God would take love from me, it was too painful. I praise God all the time, that He did not answer that prayer. Now I know first hand what love really is. Actually God spoke to me and said go and teach my love, but most of all be my love on earth.


I could continue on the human aspect of love but it does not profit much. I want you to know and walk in the everlasting love. That is where the victory in your life on earth is.
In the beginning God began with love. He longed for a family, so His love created man, and he had His family. Love was the breath that made man come to life. God (love) blew His breath into man.
The devil could not stand the love, because he was full of hate, so he caused Adam and Eve to fall, and hate began to rule. Spiritual death took over.

1 John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.


1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.

1 John 4:17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

John 3:16 For God (love) so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

John 3:17 For God (love) sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.


God (love) sent Jesus to bring love (God) back. Jesus is the perfect example of God’s Love. If you have seen the movie Passion, you will have seen God’s Love in action. We have seen pictures of Jesus on the cross many times but none have shown close to what He went through until the movie Passion was released. I have heard people say that Jesus was really a strong man physically to take the beating He did. I agree that He probably was strong in that way, but He was still in a human body. What I saw was Love in action. Every time He fell to the ground, He thought of you and me and Love compelled Him to get up. He knew that the only way for us to be saved was for Him to die. He had a destiny. Could any of us endure that? Jesus paid the price for you. He took on all the hate of the world, and defeated Satan, so you could walk in His Love.


Rom 6:3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?


Rom 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.


Rom 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:


When we were baptized into Jesus Christ we were given a new life, and that we should walk in it. The new life is Love. God’s love was put in us at that point. If you are a born again believer love is in you, but are you walking in it. Some say how do I do that. You believe that The Word of God is true, and obey it.


Rom 5:5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.


Gal 5:6 For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.


Mat 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38 This is the first and great commandment.
Mat 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
Mat 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.

A Challenge


Our loving Savior and Lord has given us an amazing opportunity- to rise above the watered- down version of love this world offers us and take hold of the truest and most lasting kind of love imaginable. It's a chance to set aside and discover romance at its best... the romance of heaven! it's time to make a choice. We can embrace an empty, selfish lifestyle that ends in heartache and despair, or we can learn to live and love selflessly... just like our own Great Lover Himself.

God is longing to write your love story- a love story far beyong the most incredible fairy tale ever written. Will you give Him the pen today?? :D

You cannot stay the way you are and go with God. ( Henry Blackaby )

God has ventured all in Jesus Christ to save us, now He wants us to venture our all in abandoned confidence in Him. ( Oswald Chambers )

Be assured, if you walk with Him and look to Him and expect help from Him, he will never fail you. ( George Mueller )

The thing that taxes almightiness is the very thing which we as disciples of Jesus ought to believe He will do. ( Oswald Chambers )

The man who has God for his treasure has all things in One. ( A.W. Tozer )

Wounded for Heaven's Sake -Letting Go- ='(


Jesus once said to those closet to Him,


You're blessed when you are out of options, and all you can do is lean on God. Because when you realize your need for God, it is only then that you tap into His immeasurable greatness and goodness.

You're blessed when you've been stripped of that which is most precious to you. Because only then can you be tenderly embraced by the One most precious to you. ( Matthew 5 : 3- 5 )


Jesus Himself gave us the key to unlocking the treasure chest where the sheet music to the ''sweeter song'' is held. Remember how I said earlier that there is something better out there when it comes to love, but it is found in a very unexpected place? Well, the unexpected place is God Himself. And to find the ''something better'' we have to ''lean on God'' and be ''stripped of that which is most precious to us.'' In a sense, we have to be willing to become vulnerable to trust Him if we wish to find security and satisfaction in Him. We have to be willing to let go of what little we have, to gain the great riches and supreme happiness He has to offer. And we have to let Him have the helm if we wish to hear the ''sweeter song.''

The ''something better'' is found in emptying yourself, surrendering to His lead, letting go of your life and all you hold dear, and entrusting everything in Him. Because in doing that, you will be tenderly embraced by the sweetest Musicain in all the Universe and receive your own personal concert.

Letting go is not easy for any of us. But Jesus makes it very clear that to go where He is going and to be a part of His wondrous plan we must,

''deny ourselves, pick up our cross daily, and follow Him'' ( Luke 9 : 23 )


He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose...


To discover life, Jesus says you have to give your up ( Luke 9 : 24; John 12 : 25 ). Your love is no different . If you really desire to one day discover the ''beautiful side of love'' you have to first walk through the ''painful side.'' Just like pouring concrete is not the exciting part of building a house yet the essential part, the same is true with building a magnificient romance. Laying your life down is not the fun and enjoyable part; it's the essential part!


If God is going to write your love story, He's going to first need your pen. If God is going to lead your love boat to the harbor of romance beyond the fairy tales, He needs the helm. As Jesus once said to his followers:

Daily you must trust Me, surrending everything, including the blood in your veins and the breath in your lungs, for Me to do with as I see fit. If you want to join up with Me, you must let Me lead. ( Luke 9 : 23 )



The floods washed away home and mill, all the poor man had in the world. But as he stood on the scene of his loss, after the water had subsided, brokenhearted and discouraged, he saw something shinning in the bank which the waters had washed bare. ''It looks loke gold,'' he said. It was gold. The flood which had beggared him made him rich. ( Henry Clay Trumbull )

Gaining the Strength to Stand Alone


''Loneliness is a required course for leadership,'' there's a time I felt completely alone from friends and family, away from Zebedee, away from anyone who really knew me- these simple words gave me perspective on the purpose for my loneliness. God was using the loneliness to teach me complete dependence upon Him. I could no longer look to other people for my confidence. I had no choice but to find my courage and hope in Him. This kind of total dependence on the Lord was preparing me to become more effective for His kingdom. I was gaining the inward strength of character I would need to become a leader someday for Him.


A true leader must have enough backbone to stnd alone- even when crowds wants to take the easy road home. A true leader cannot dependent on companionship for his or her security, but must learn to trust in God alone. Singleness can give us this kind of backnone- courage, confidence, and leadership skills that any effective Christian must learn. ( I did'nt said that we must be a loner. )

What's Your Story?


What's Your Story?

Did you see yourself in any of these thirty-one individuals? Have you also known of the despair of not knowing what to do and where to turn? Did you ever get frustrated or lonely? Desperate?

If the answer is yes, don't be surprised.

As long as we are living lives in our own, ruling our own worlds, we will be desperate. Whether we're on top of the world or at the bottom of the pit, we cannot escape the feeling that something is wrong. Because something is wrong- us.


I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate to do. And if I do what I do not want to do, I agree that the law is good. As it is, it is no longer I myself who do it, but it is sin living in me. ( Romans 7 : 15- 17 )


Have you ever tried to avoid something you knew was wrong but ended up doing it anyway? This internal tug-of-war is something all of us experience. Sadly, no matter how hard we pull the rope, we will always lose. It is not because we do not try hard enough, it is because we are incapable to win because of sin. We are born sinful and it is in our nature to sin. Ever since Adam committed the first sin, all of us inherited his sinful nature. Thus, every person is born seperated from God. All of us- without exception- are sinners and deserve to face enternal seperation from God.


For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. ( Romans 3: 23 )


As it is written : ''There is no one righteous, not even one; no one who seeks God. All have turned away, They have together become worthless; There is no one who understands, No one who seeks God. All have turned away, They have together become worthless; There is no one who does good, not even one.'' ( Romans 3 : 10-12 )


You might wonder, ''Why doesn't God just accept me as I am? If He is so loving, why can't He just cancel my sins? But God is not only a God of love but also a God of justice. What good would a judge be if he decides on a whim to let go of the guilty? God in His great love instead provided a way for us to be reconciled with Him.

God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have enternal life. ( John 3 : 16 )

But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. ( Romans 5 : 8 )

For


The salvation of God offers to us through His Son Jesus Christ is a gift. In fact, it is the greatest gift any of us can ever receive because its value will last through all eternity.


For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is enternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. ( Romans 6 : 23 )


For it is by grace you have been saved through faith- and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast. ( Ephesians 2 : 8-9 )


But it is not enough to just know about Jesus Christ and the gift of enternal life. We must first acknowledge that we are sinners, make a decision to turn away from sin, individually receive Jesus Christ into our hearts and commit to have a personal relationship with Him.


And this is the testimony; God has given us enternal life, and this life is in his Son, He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life. ( 1 John 5 : 11-12 )


...but now he commands all people everywhere to repent. For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the Man he has appointed. ( Acts 17 : 30-31 )


If you confess with your mouth, ''Jesus is Lord,'' and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. ( Romans 10 : 9 )


Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gaved the right to become children of God. ( John 1 : 12 )


PRAYER- for those who not yet accepted God as their Savior and Lord...

Lord Jesus,


I am tired of living life on my own strength. I admit that I am a sinner and I need your forgiveness. Help me turn away from sin and live a life of obedience to you. Thank you for giving Your life for me and paying the penalty of my sins. I now receive You as my Savior and Lord. Please come into my heart and take control of my life. Forgive me for all my sins and help me become the kind of person that God wants me to be.

The Power To FORGIVE


SIN causes pain, To move on to the beautiful plans God has for our lives, we must get past the crippling effects of unforgiveness. When we come face to face with the tender, forgiving eyes of our Redeemer, only then will we gain the power to forgive ourselves- and those who have used us. In light of the forgiveness Christ has offered us, how can we offer less to those who have hurt us? They are only sinners like us.
If you devasted by sin, riddled with guilt over your mistakes, overcome with bitterness towards someone who has used you, it's time to run into the arms of Jesus and look into His loving eyes. Allow Him to wash you clean, white as snow, and give you a fresh start. His plans for you are more amazing than you can image. A God-written love story may be just on the horizon for you! Allow Him to remove the song of loneliness and remorse you have been singing, and to place into your heart a new song- the ''sweeter song.'' Just what he did to me... :D

Sin is Serious >=(


Sexual sin... impurity... moral compromise. In any form, in any circumstance, its effects are devastating. Sin rips lives and hearts apart- destroying innocence, beauty, and joy. Sin's consequences often follow us for the rest of our lifetime, and sometimes even the next generations must pay the price for the mess we have made of our lives.
The most damaging result of sin is that it pushes us away from our Creator. We carry the guilt of what we've done in our hearts- attempting to keep it hidden from Him, and then we end up wandering helplessly and alone, miles away from the One who loves us.
Growing up in Christian circles, I often observed the issue of sexual sin being treated lightly. There is some truth to that statement. Yes, we will all make mistakes, but this does not mean it is inevitable that will all fall into sexual sin, or the purity is impossible, and that we are just a ''victim of culture'' if we cannot achieve it. Yes, God does offer grace and forgiveness, and He can give us a spiritually speaking. But we should never take advantage to His wonderful grace. And we should never treat our sin lightly. In the eyes of a holy God, our sin is detestable.
When we take this attitude toward sexual sin- that it's too hung up over it- we deny the awesome and amazing power of what Christ did for us on the cross. In truth, sexual sin is horrifying. It breaks the heart of God. It destroys that natural perfect order of love that God created between a man and woman. It violates us. We should feel remorse when we sin in this way... and we should realize the gravity of what we have done. And yet, that's not where it should end.

The Passion and The Pew


Growing up in the church, I came to believe that everything I longed for was somehow bad for my proper spiritual development. For most of my life, I thought it was God who posed the greatest hurdle to experiencing all the thrills of love and romance. And I would have taken great offence to someone trying to convince me that God should have a greater role in my love story. All the stern ''thou shalt nots'' He had so thoughtfully bestowed on me were quite enough, thank you!
For many years of my life, I struggled to find the right words to capture my agonizing frustrations. I was a young man fighting a constant inward battle between needing to obey God's ''thou shalt nots'' and yet longing to fulfill my passionate, sensual desires.
It wasn't until I stumbled upon the following story from Greek legend that I found the perfect picture to describe my years of torment. If you have unsuccesfully tried to mix ''the passion'' with ''the pew,'' there's a good chance that you will be able to relate to the hidden message in this Greek-tale-with-a-Ludy-twist.

Discovering and Developing Talents and Life Skills


God has created us each with unique gifts, abilities, and heart desires. He has a master plan for each of our lives. Singleness is a time to seek Him with an undivided, undistracted heart. When a relationship comes into our life, often who we are as an individual gets swallowed up, and our identity becomes wrapped up in that person. Being single is an opportunity to discover who God has made us to be and what He has called us to in this life.

What are the desires of your heart? To train as a musician or athlete? To pursue a college education? To backpack across the country? To go into missionary work? Maybe it's even to simply spend a season at home serving your own family and community in practical ways. Singleness can be the perfect time for developing life skills and discovering how to use your talents for the Lord.

Learn to Forgive and be Forgivable


As a proper thank-you to God for selecting you for this new life of love, put on the clothes that He purchased for you and so generously placed in your spiritual closet: compassion, kindness, humility, silent confidence, and patience. Not haught, hurtful, and holding grudges; but humble, helpful, and happy to forgive those who have wronged you just as thoroughly as Jesus forgave you. But more important than any other piece of clothing in your entire wardrobe, put on love. It's the key to the entire outfit, bringing out the sparkle in all the other elements. ( Colossians 3: 12-14 )

Marriage is a lifestyle chock full of asking forgiveness and offering forgiveness. It doesn't seem to matter how hard I tryto emulate Jesus, my sin nature finds its way to be surface of my life. Each of us should train for such an Olympic event. Learning to forgive takes hard work and many tears. It takes determination and a whole lot of help from God.
It might seems nearly impossible to forgive your family for some of the things they did to you while you were growing up. But if you make it your goal to forgive them as God has forgiven you, and if you actively pursue loving them the way Christ loves you, then you will not only have set your own heart free, but you will have showcased a little picture of heaven on earth. If you learn to forgive, you will have learned the greatest defense mechanism against divorce.
Forgiving is hard. But often times, it is even more difficult to be forgivable. Most of us complain about how we have been wronged by our families, but we fail to realize that we ourselves have been guilty of hurting them, too.

A Different Tune


For those of us who have spent years tied to the mast and for those of us who couldn't bear the allurement and crashed against the rocks, it's time to set sail to a different tune.
In our love-hungry generation we struggle to believe that the ''beautiful side of love'' really exists. But the truth is, the version of love that is alive and real and in the heart and mind of God. It is the ''sweeter song.'' And when you hear this ''sweeter song'' you, too, will realize that it is ten thousand times more magnificent than your most grandiose imagination.
God reated us with a desire for companionship. He designed us to intensly long for intimacy- spiritual, emotional and yes, even physical. He did not make us this way and provide us with these longings as a form of cruel torture, but as the most perfect girl He could possibly give us. Just as a lover desires to show his adoration to his bride by tenderly presenting her with a dedicate and fragnant rose, so has our Great Lover gifted us with this delicate and wondrous capacity to give and receive love and passion, And once we awaken to this truth, then we will also discover that, as the Inventor of romance, He also want to teach us how to discover it in all its fullness.
So for all of you in this generation who dream of something eternally sweet and are tired of rope burn, God is eagerly waiting for you to jump aboard His ship so that He can play the ''sweeter song'' just for you.

It's an Art :D


Faithfulness is an attribute of heavenly romance that is extremly misunderstood. How can you be faithful to someone before you even meet? Isn't faithfulness a quality that becomes important once a relationship already exist?
We are all commanded by God to be succesful in mastering the art of faithfulness. Faithfulness is a discipline that is refined and honed through years of practice. Over time it becomes a habit. In a sense, it is learning to love your future spouse through patiently waiting, consistently hoping, and living by the high standard to which you've been called. I like to picture faithfulness as anoak tree, which patiently endures the torrid winds and rains, only to become stronger and more solid as a result. It is strength learned through persevering; it is integrity gained through waiting. It's imperative to the ''beautiful side of love.''

Some Guy Talk


Give this warped world a little taste of heaven on earth by graciously accepting the hand life deals you. In the dense, immoral fog of this generation, shine your life as a beacon, guiding others to the goodness and grace of God. Though this world is polluted, live in spotless purity, uncontaminated by all the garbage around you. ( Philippians 2: 14-15 )

Guys, just imagine that God has it in His mind to bring into your life someday a precious and lovely wife who will make your heart skip a beat every time you look at her. Can you picture that?
Now, I want you also imagine that this beautiful young woman can see you right now. Pretend that she is capable of watching you, everywhere you go, and she is able to see everything you do. I know this is really stretching your imagination, guys, but stick with me!
Okay then, if she could see and hear everything, ask yourself this question, ''If she followed me around throughtout my day, everyday of my life, would she feel cherished and adored by me as she watches me interact with other girls? Would she come away each day saying, 'He sure does love me!' or would she be deeply hurt by the way I give what is hers to other women?''
For instance, what if I was spending a Friday night with a perfumed little lady instead of with my dateless buddies. What if my future spouse could see me slithering my snake-like arm around another girl's shoulder? What if she could witnessme puckering my unbridled and oversized lips and kissing someone else? Do you think she would be cheering me on? ( Just Kidding, of course i dont. )
I wanted to adore her and cherish her before I even met her. And I realize I could do that by choosing, in every situation life brought my way, to think of her as if she were right beside me and to consider how my decisions would affect her.
Now how would you, as a guy, respond to a statement like that? Whether or not that is an unrealistic request for a woman to have is beside the point. The point is this, the desire she had ( and your future wife has right now, even though you don't yet know her ) is that you would be a '' one woman man'' you entire life, not just after you meet her.
Give her your heart, mind, body now! It easy to run around from one shallow relationship to the next, meeting your own selfish desires. But it takes a real man, a real lover, to keep one woman satisfied for life. I guarantee you, the rewards of such a decision are off-the-charts amazing. And she'll love you like a man longs to be loved.

Christian


If we cut off their tongues and forbid the Christians speech, they love with their hands, with their feet, and with their eyes, they love always and everywhere until their last respiration. Does anybody know how to take out the power of love from these stupid Christians?
Love is the cologne of Christ. You can't get close to Him without catching its overwhelming fragnance. Love is the scent of Christ's true followers, too. And it's the fragnance of love that we, as Christ's followers, are personally responsible to drench ourselves in. Take off the cologne cap and just dump it. The heavier the aroma, the more of Jesus this world will understand and know.
Jesus wasn't mincing words when He said, You will know my followers by their love. In other words, if there is no scent of Christ's love on someone , then they bear no evidence of true devotion to Christ. Love is our badge as Christians. Just as an FBI agent whips out his ID and states, ''FBI!'' we as Christians whip out our attitudes, actions, and words to prove ''I am with Him!''

Searching for True Love


The past year have held challenges like we've never know before. Time and time again, you have provided a comforting refuge of encouragement, support, prayer, and most of all, unconditional love.
How many years had I longed and urgently searched for true love? How many nights had I laid awake, dreaming of a beautiful romance - a lasting relationship that wouldn't end in heartache?
I yearned to be loved and cherished. I had a dreamed of a perfect love story for my entire life. But somewhere in the midst of the endless cycle of one temporary romance after the next, my dreams had shattered right along with the broken and fragmented pieces of heart.
I had asked other advice. Those from the older generation had simply given guideliness to follow, which were so completely out of touch with the reality of my world that they were worthless to me. As a Christian, I had listened carefully to the instructions given by the church leaders, and tried to follow the Christian rules of dating to the letter. But their rules never protected me from a broken heart and shattered life.
When I turned to those in the younger generation, I found they were all in the same boat I was in- an endless cycle of shallow and cheap romances that never lasted and left us emotionally bleeding and insecure. In fact, the pain I experience was small compared to what many of my friends had gone through.
As I lay on my bed pondering these thoughts, I found myself inwardly forming a desperate prayer. ''God, where are you in this?'' my heart cried silently. ''I am your child. All my life, you know I have longed for something beautiful. I have searched for true love. Does a pure and perfect romance even exist in this dark world of lust and pervision and sin? Should I even dare to dream of something beyond the shallow, meaningless, cheap version of love I've known so far?''
A quiet challenge deeply touched my spirit in that moment, as if God were tenderly standing before me, with tears of boundles love in his eyes, whispering to my heart... You have searched for true love inyour own way. But my ways are not your ways.
It wasn't too long after the tear-filled, hopeless night that my unforgetable journey began. It was a journey to discover something I never before knew existed- the matchless beauty of God -written love story. More out of desperation than confidence.
I was so aware of the conversation, painting each sunset, and standing over us with a smile. The cheap, imitation romance I'd known before simply could not be compared to this new kind of love I had discovered. I was daily amazed that I had come from a place of heartbreak, confusion, and compromise, to a dream come true. I had discovered a kind of divine love that can't even be found in the fairy tales, simply by giving God the pen of my life's story. He was interested in this part of my life. He did have a plan! And he has one for you, too.

As for God, His way is perfect. ( Psalm 18:30 )

Love at first sight? (this is my story)


LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?
(this is my story)

What do you think about love at first sight? Ihave met one special girl who caught my heart the very first time I saw her. The fisrt day we met, everything about me went wrong. I can't understand these feelings. It's as if her picture always appear in my mind. It's a wierd feeling.

I know I have fallen in love for the first time in my life. I tried to control my heart to change my feelings but my heart has a mind of it's own. I feel so foolish that sometimes in my desire to be close to her, I have done some stupid things that can be the reason to her to hate me, this is the first time i have fallen in love and it causes the greatess hurt. I have failed in so many ways to let her know how much i value her friendship, there are times that i felt so stupid, yet because my love for her I never have given up hope, waiting for the right time.

I try to analyze my mistake change what can be change and respect her position knowing that time pass by many changing happend, I know that God has the right time and the porpose and plan for me. I thank the lord for his guidance for my friends, concellors, parents and family that help me through their advices and messages. I promised to myself that she will be the one and the last even if time has to take it's toll between us, she will be remain the one and the last girl for me. It is so hard to let go of a wonderful feeling. But let alone that when i saw her happy everything seems fine, if letting go could gave her so much joy then I willing to accept the truth, we will still friends forever.......

Endless Love


Once there was a beautiful bird adorned with colorful and glossy feather. He would fly freely across the sky in perfect harmony. Full of life, shinning high up into mountains, bringing joy to everyone who see him. But because he is beautiful thereare people who want him for themselves they are afraid that they wont see him again and put him in a cage.

Then something strange happend. The bird unable to express himself simply began to waste away. Since he cannot fly anymore he cost interest in life. Everyday he felt alone. His feathers lost their gloss, hegrew ugly, withered and died.

If we have only looked more deeply into ourselves, to see things beyond what we hold dear. If only we have learn to love and still let go. To be able to nurture life freely. To love and to share life with others.

Only in learning to be selfless can we hold on to an endless love. Once we realize that loving is giving and sharing, even at point of pain. If we only understand that endless love is ment? For people who have love and expect nothing in return such is the gift of a life to live life to the fullest and love and be continuesly be living thinking nothing of ourself but endlessly loving and giving.

Love Must Be The Reason


LOVE MUST BE THE REASON

(Broken love song) composed by: Rafael Enrico Sy

Verse 1:

Now that you are gone
As another day pass by
There's a feeling of emptiness inside of me
As my life goes on
Sometimes word's can't explain why?
How can I survive without you
And learn to accept the truth.......
Chorus:
Love must be the reason
I can't understand why?
Everything seems special
Zeal in the friendship we have
Love must be the reason.......
Verse 2:
Co'z everything seems so beautiful
Having you close beside me
Every special moment
No one can ever change the
Greatness of the friendship we once shared.......
Bridges:
Special memories last forever
Over our broken dreams.......
