Love endures

As I write about two characters that realize they love each other, it's interesting. This thought of love and how people will do such silly things when it has to do with someone they love. It's a beautiful thing. Yes, beautiful I called it. Love is doing things you never imagined you'd do. Love is trust, kindness, passion, honesty--even when it hurts. So I write about two characters and their interactions with each other. I laugh and cry as I imagine what things they are about to go through, all because they know love.

It's not easy. Romantic comedies make light of the pain, but still show that the people involved are not perfect. I enjoy them because they let me see how unexpected feelings can drive a person.

LOVE. :-)

Love is God. God is Love. God is so amazing to be so loving even when each of us struggle at some point with that fact. He loves us so completely. Unyeilding. It's breath taking.

I've learned so much about God's love lately. So much about His passion for each of us. Wounds of my past He takes from me. Washes me, comforts me, tells me to never think of them again. He draws my hands up to Him and through the song I sing my Lord surrounds me, engulfs me, in his Holy Spirit. As I walk through the day I feel His comfort on me. I feel the intoxicating passion of Love. His Love. I've never felt anything like it in my life, and I know I'll never feel anything better. This is the best kind of love. This is love I can never again live my life without.

Love can make you a better person. You want to lay down your life for someone you truly love, and slowly He is showing me how to do that. It won't always be the easiest, but with the Lord I will be able to endure anything. Daily I must remember to pick up my cross and lay down my life for Jesus, the One who first did this for me. For I was decaying and He brought me back through love. My heart forever belongs to Him, and no one else. I love you, Lord.
