"Do not stir up nor awaken love until it pleases."
-Song of Songs 8:4
hmm.. I can't sleep. Dunno why.. it is because of the incident happened at the church or the story told by my friend?
I keep reminding myself nowadays that if it is God's will, it will happen! :)
My heart's prayer is that God will give me the patience to wait for my God's best and He will give me wisdom to counsel my friend/s regarding heart issues. By His Spirit, I will know what to say and what not to say.
I'm currently reading "What to do until love finds you". I'll promise that I will share the highlights of this book at my blogs. It will be coming soon.. hehe. Allow me to finish it before the month ends. ukie?!:)
I'm God's PRINCESS.
I'm His child.
I'll keep trusting Him for my PRINCE. :)

Love God, Love People
It hurts.. I don't know why there are some people as if they existed just to pull you down, down and down.. and they'll never stop hurting you. But you know what hurts more? If those people are the people you're really close with.
People will hurt, annoy and disappoint you in some point of our lives. But whenever I think of God's grace, I realized that these people needs grace too. Grace is God showing His love to you even though you don't deserve it.
Aside from the physical wounds, God can heal heartaches.
He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
—Psalm 147:3
I can't change them but God can. What I can do is to show them the love and grace that I have received from Him.
But I tell you who hear me: Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you, bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you (Luke 6:27-28).
What if you're enemies didn't apologize?
Let us follow Jesus' example: Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing (Luke 23:34).
And let us not be carried away by our emotions easily because maybe we just misinterpret that person too. That person might be on a personal crisis, exhausted, busy and distracted. These past few days, I can say that I'm getting 'manhid' na because what my friend finds offending from someone else's words that was being thrown to me.. deadma lang sa akin..d ko na kasi pansin e..hehe.. :D
The reason behind it...
Love God, Love People.
It's love month anyway. :)
But even if its not the season of hearts,lets love in every season. ("v")
