How come I can't seem to ever be just friends with the one I love? Is it because my love for them is too strong and they can't see it? Or is it that the person I love is lost and blinded to it at the moment? Perhaps this would be my chance to really show it to her, though she's focused on her expectations with this other guy who I know doesn't have the love of the Father in him,.. So if I can keep her aware of what it means to be loved by me, for my love is an example of Christ's love for the church. Maybe she will eventually see that she can't get what she desires from the "love" she expects from him. Just maybe. This time however, I feel that I don't have the option to not love her anymore. I've tried to do that before a few times and it never works,.. So in the meantime, I show love by welcoming her and suffering because I can't have her yet. Christ suffered to death on the cross because He loves me. Sacrifice is the means by which true love is displayed. And His resurrection is validation of that love. I believe that true love apart from the Father; devotion, long suffering, harmony and peace (which are of God) isn't true at all,..


So I just figured I'd share this part of my current life with you all, in the hopes that someone reads it and benefits from what I have learned about God's love and cares enough to pray for the redemption of her spirit through me as His humble Bondservant. I continue to pray frequently about this, but I suffer in the meantime. It's not so bad though, because just having her in my life again is enough for me to try to always persevere to accomplish the purpose for which God planned to do by bringing her back into my life. It's never easy, but this is harder than I thought it'd be. So as long as I remain humble and true to The Lord and display His love for me to her, I have faith that good things will continue to come. I know for a fact that she's not completely lost. There's still that thing inside her that gives her the sense that what she is doing is bad and she wants it to be good. So I pray that God will cause His love to be felt by her, as it by me.

i have a niece that met the perfect guy for her while still in high school. she thought so, he thought so, and so did everyone else. she began to doubt this however simply because everyone approved, including her parents so she left him to everyone's surprise and dismay. she married someone else shortly after and it was a disaster from the get go. long story short they divorced after 2 children and she remarried. a better sort but not a better match and she ended up divorced a 2nd time. 20 years later she ran into her high school sweetheart who had never married. they were both christians and they fell in love all over again. they have been happily married for many years now. their wedding announcement stated 20 years late but not too late. they adore one another and are actively serving the Lord. be strong. you can never know what plans God has for you.
