DEATH for LOVE ( a thought for a LOVEian )

“ I wish he had told me I looked prettier or amazing or WHOOA, instead of just nodding, and saying, “good”

“I wish my sister’d just close her mouth and stop complaining...and start cleaning it herself”

“My mom should have been open-minded and not have said those words...”

“I was hoping he’d call rather than text me...”

“I wish she had been more appreciative and understanding than demanding me her needs and wants....”

“I hope they have been friendlier and down-to-earth since they are the leaders...”

I wish my husband would have been kinder...

I wish he had given more importance to me than his....

I wish he had given me that costly gift he was capable of giving...

I wish she had been more generous to others...

I wish she had been compassionate instead of critical...

I wish I had been sinless than others...
I wish I had not been slacking...
I wish I...


While we were yet sinners,
Christ died for us.


I have been hearing this verse for a long time. But lately, it has given me more light on the topic that I love- Love.

Long before anything has been done, Love already existed. It never changes, whether or not we do something. It was long before decided.

No matter how much you know a person, you can never dictate what he will respond given the act you have hurdled over him even you know there’s so much ability he could follow what you have wanted. You could expect...but that is the least you could do.

We are no Gods. We cannot tell a person to say this or respond this way. And we end up in frustration. We now hear ourselves grumbling, and end up hating the other person ( or our self when we expect ourselves to react/ do a certain way).

Love. We hear this word all the time...from the songs, or movies, even texts...But what it is, really?

EVEN YET...we were....

HE HAD ALREADY.....

DIED



for His

LOVE.

“ Dying to our own pride and selfish expectations, wishes, and hopes, that Love may live.”

***
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
Romans 5:8
