If we were to take the world's picture of love, the impression we would be left with is that it would be okay to love this god until he picks a new favorite, then move on to this god, until he doesn't let me do what I want, and then move on to this god, until he...etc. By the time we have found "Mr. Right", in this case our true Heavenly Father, we will have so much hurt to deal with.<br /><br />Instead, we are to prepare for the time when we will be together and not be distracted, for when he will appear(reappear!) in our lives. It makes me think of the parable of the ten virgins in Matthew 25:1-13.<br /><br />Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the subject!Classic Kniteraturehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04925662313758616738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595707350324057776.post-44580727016732008332012-02-13T08:09:19.933-08:002012-02-13T08:09:19.933-08:00"Love" isn't eve "love" an..."Love" isn't eve "love" any more. We use it so often- "I LOVED that movie, I love this meal. I love this shirt. I love this, that, etc, etc". We've lost the meaning for it. What's fun to do, actually, is to say that I love a guy. Not just like him. And the truth be told, I love many of my guy friends... but, not in the sense that you might be thinking. I'm loving them with "Phillio" love, Brotherly Love. <br /> We need to love God with an Agapa love, an everlasting love. He loves us like that. His love has no bounds. We need to be on fire for Christ! Let's love our brothers in Christ AS brothers and nothing else... and focus on loving Christ even more. <br /> If we don't focus on loving Him right now while we are single, we're going to have a tough time once we're married because we will have the special guy in our lives. And, your foundation for marriage should be on each other's love for Christ, above all else. <br /><br />Thanks for this post, Grace!! I hope my comment wasn't rambling too much... :)Lilac Bud Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00338062720194663204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2595707350324057776.post-69739279716687942712012-02-12T19:21:15.720-08:002012-02-12T19:21:15.720-08:00so sweet, so true! how romantic, too =")

There are so many hurting people because they are simply doing what every one else does: *date, break-up, date.* Repeat from *-* It's awful and what's sad is that it's probably the reason for most- if not all- divorces in our culture. <br /><br />I am so happy and comforted to know God is raising up a generation of people who don't want this to be their status quo...
