love is in the air

Yeah, Valentines over... but not over for people and couples :), singles continue to search for their 'one'. and others continue to blossom... some have heart breaks, but all is well. But really, what is love?
“This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.”- 1 John 4:10

Well who knew... I signed into bible gateway with this verse in mind and there it was Verse of the week! incredible... So what did I do on Valentines day? Well naturally I went out with my girl :).

was a really enjoyable night... started off with exchanging of gifts, she got me this real nice black tie and tie pin. ha ha I love it! =) Then we headed to her favorite Korean BBQ! ate till we were like super bloated. Later didhn't knwo what to do so I told her lets go Karaoke Haha naturally she said it wouldn't be fun with just the 2 of us, (which you gotta admit, is quite boring) so decided to call ally to see if she was up for a night out. Turned out nope.. late night tmr work, Understandable :). So after that decided to go for movies.. obviously fearing there were no tickets.. but praise God there were tickets couple seats too! haha bonus ;). watched the kung fu dunk... I think it was pretty awesome, I prefer it to CJ7 but they both have their differences and CJ 7 did make me cry near the end.. so sad haha I hate crying coz of a sacrifice.. but hey I am human lol. Any howz.. after that it was like all over... But I loved the time I spent with her.. cherish every second of it =)...

For all those couples, Remember your partner is human, and some times will fail or even need your support. trust in God for all the real needs in your heart, but share it with your bf/gf/hubby/wife too, so the burdern is not so heavy, if you got another person there then God never intended you to keep it all inside I guess, but neither did he intend you to give it all to your partner =). Let God fill your relationship with fun abundance, and most of all His love as a foundation.

For all those singles, don't forget there is no such thing as your other half :) you must be one before you can get into a relationship.. coz a half and a half.. makes 1 and 1 emptiness lol (since half of u was empty) ... Therefore know that God;s love is sufficent for you :) and if your looking for some one, remember that God loves you lots, don't worry they will come along eventually, suited, customized for you personally, coz u both will click. but always remember God loves ya tonnes !

In this world, humans can never fill that void of emptiness and meaningless feeling in your heart, yes a boy or girl cna come along and make you happy... but at the end of the day, did they fill that void... of temporary patch it for a second, only God can fill in that empty void.. which sin created when it broke us off with God. When there was no hope, and humans were still sinners, God came down and died. His timing was perfect.. no later or earlier could he arrive. it was perfect timing =). don;t think about others.. let God think about that first. Coz God is thinking about YOU. =) You are his desire and He wants to be with YOU and carry all your burdens.. He wants to see you enjoy life =) he takes pleasure in it =).

Promises:
2 Corinthians 8:9
For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, so that you through his poverty might become rich.

1 Peter 2:24
He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed.

Colossians 3:15
Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful.

Romans 5:17
For if, by the trespass of the one man, death reigned through that one man, how much more will those who receive God's abundant provision of grace and of the gift of righteousness reign in life through the one man, Jesus Christ.

Love:
1 John 4:9
This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him.

Ezekiel 18:32
For I take no pleasure in the death of anyone, declares the Sovereign LORD. Repent and live!

Ezekiel 18:23
Do I take any pleasure in the death of the wicked? declares the Sovereign LORD. Rather, am I not pleased when they turn from their ways and live?


So many promises, in one gift.. Jesus has presented himself to you as a gift... and He knocks on your heart, doesn't matter how many sins you got in your heart. he's ready willing to take you back into where He always wanted you to be , by His side. All you gotta do is let Him in and say

" Yes Jesus , I now ask you to come and be my Lord and Saviour, Thank you that you took all my sins on the cross and saved me life. amen"

if you said it welcome, if your still pondering :) nothing to lose, I wont force you God never forced me, but He also never gave up on me =)

God bless ya all!
