love of a friend

Do you have friends?

I Have lots of friends, but do you love them?

when I was in high school I am happy because I have amny friends but I realized I don't love them that much and sometimes I don't care about them until one day, I had a problem and I needed someone to talk to, but no one is there to help me, I was so saddened at that time and I realized that I have ignored them especially at the time that time that they needed me. I came to my senses that friends are very important. I have realized that I have to love them and care for them so that they will also treat you well as a friend we should not turn our backs from them. As what the golden rule says "do unto to others what you want others do unto you and do not do unto others what you don't want others do unto you.

But if you are a real friend , you will no longer expect the paybacks your friends will give to you. I also realized that friends are important and valuable, it is very comforting to have friends that are trustworthy and real. From all of that realization I tend to become, caring, loving and real person to them. And now I am happy because I can say I have friends that are worth trusting for, caring and loving, they helped me whenever I needed their help, they give me advices that are very good and godly, every time I am with them I feel that I do not need any boyfriend at all just to make me happy because I am already happy having them in my life and they make my life colorful and lively.


But I cannot deny the fact that sometimes we misunderstood each other. But I am still happy because those problems we'd face, led us to a better bond and better friendship,and I would say we became best of friends. I also believe that friends are better than lovers because sometimes a boyfriend can be easily gone but friends last forever till the end of times. While writing this blog, I imagined and reminisced the memories we had and I am really treasuring all those because they are important to me and valuable in my life. And I love them.


If you have friends, love them,care about them, and value them.:-)

LOVE

LOVE

1 Corinthians 13


Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.

13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

God's love

God's unconditional love is very amazing and indescribable, God's love is very fascinating and really amazing, late this morning I went to the jail just to visit a friend that was alleged by murder I was really sad about the news. As I talked to my friend inside the jail I have noticed that there were 4 of them inside and looking at them I didn't hesitate to talk to them, one by one I interviewed their individual offenses and I have known that the three of them were once a Christian but almost of them were lost to the right track, indeed the gate for the kingdom of God is very narrow. As I interview them they all told me that they regretted what they have done.   And if they were given a second time around they will really do what is right.

In relation t God's unconditional love it refers to the love of Christ that is very unconditional which doesn't require any conditions. This simply means that God is a forgiving and merciful God.God's unconditional love is seldom seen by other people. God's love is the ideal love everybody wants to have.

Talking with the prisoners, I have reminded them that God is  a forgiving God that is ready to pull us back from the depth of our sorrow and darkness. Although we are sinners by nature, God will still accept us as long as we ask forgiveness and help from him.

 

Why is it so difficult to wait? why do teenagers usually act as if love is a competition or a race? is it really hard to wait?.

      Many  have been influenced most especially teenagers by the surroundings and many other factors in the society and one of the best example is the media. Media had greatly influenced people's point of views and beliefs. As you can noticed this days, the social media has never been conservative about love scenes and any other daring scenes that are not supposed to be displayed and tries to view things that are bad to be viewed as acceptable in which should not be . In a way, they persuade people to do it also. I do not wonder why we have teens having early dating or early relationship because this is what they see in the television. Yet teens tend to forget the values that the Lord wanted for them.
   
     For the teens reading this I want you to remember that love can wait, and please  do not be easily influenced by what you can see in people around you especially if it is wrong and which contradicts to your morale. think of it a million times.
     Love takes time, love is not a race and love truly waits.

wOrking Out whiLe waiting Out

I would like to share this small part of true love waits about waiting by Rhea Paredes and I really like this part :-)

waiting for the sake of true love does not only mean sitting around and growing jelly bellies and love handles. Our goal is Not to condition ourselves to become unfeeling, never been kissed humanoids. Waiting is the time when we an exercise our love for God and for the people who deserve it. We can develop our character and learn more about our God given sexuality. It is a time when we can build each other up to become mighty men and women of God. So get up from the couch and throw away all those junk pleasures the world offers. We're only going to intake pure joy and train ourselves for purity.

WaIting

While WaITing....



Being single is good, I love the feeling of being single because nobody's there to always get an eye on you, don't you know that being single will help us cultivate talents and develop character and at the same time  can give time on ourselves? it is the time where we can focused on our self, family and most especially God. it is also a good time to now yourself better.

Perfect LoVE

                                                        The PErfect LOvE
 It's true that I am weak
Sometimes my heart wants to quit
Sometimes I insist that I do not exist
this life has so much twist


the lad's benevolence turned my heart into valiant
 his goodness and kindness shown upon me
convinced my innocent heart

sadly, the amenity of his intentions were all untrue
were all untrue
he tore my heart into pieces left my heart broken-uncured

my heart became vulnerable and fragile
and pain seems to last forever
I long to alleviate the pain, but how?

how can a stupid lad break my heart?
who is he?
how can he fooled someones heart and mind?


but now I stand with great valor and audacity
I promise that I will never be fooled nor be hurt
I have dignity and I am worthy
and no one can treat me like a trash
they can never overrule me nor be a superior

but I realized that there is only that one guy that who will never ever hurt me
but will give me perfect love that every human being longs for
a love that is unconditional and a love that is forever
and this is JESUS and He is everything I need. . .<3 <3 <3

Waiting

Reasons to wait




There are so many reasons why we have to wait for God's right time. Many bad things might happen if we choose to follow our own selfish wills rather than His.  There are  living testimonies of people who chose to follow their own wants and some of them ended broken and emotionally distracted and many of them wished if they can still turn back time or a time machine that controls time but sad to say it is extremely impossible but the only thing we can do is to prevent from arriving to that unimaginable situation, so if you think your path is going somewhere risky and would harm you, think about it a million times because you may never know the path your going would be the one to bring you down. We should remember that love is not in a hurry but it takes time. As you can see teens having early dating turned to be miserable, many young women have been fooled by the lads, maybe because of innocence and curiosity of having a relationship. So to be able for us to make our parents and God happy about us,  and to be away from disastrous situations, we should reflect on the things we will do whether those things are healthy for us physically, emotionally and spiritually. We should learn how to wait.

Fixing a broken heart

How can you fix a broken heart????? have you ever experience having a heart break??? its almost a year since we broke up with my ex boyfriend. I was so down, frustrated, disappointed and and think I felt all the saddest emotions in this world. I couldn't imagine him being with someone else. During that time I was so vulnerable and very fragile.  But now I realized that everything has a reason. But for me to be able to be well emotionally, I did many many things just to keep myself busy so that I can no longer think of him and thank God I can now say I moved on. 

What are the things that helped me fix my heart?

After all the emotional and crying moments, I asked myself "why am I crying"? that question made me realized that I have been a looser and a fool. I have not realized that I already spent all my tears, heart, and emotions thinking about him yet he is just enjoying with his new girl.... well  I came to my senses that I am the looser then, so from that realization I did my best to stand up and to be strong. I always think that he is not worth it and most especially not worth it to be cried upon. He has no right at all to make me cry. And who is he? well he is just a boy, and there are still thousands of boys around the world. We may never know the right person for us But only God does. And also one of the strategy I did is seeking of God's word and there you will realized that there are so much better than your ex boyfriend. God's words are very refreshing, comforting and a great encouragement for us. And because I am really desperate to be really healed and well    I read books about true love waits and I tell you it is very effective. From that reading I have learned that I must maintain my standards and my self worth because nobody can give it rather than yourself . As woman in this world we must know that we are important and BOYS don't have the right to hurt us. We deserve respect, and we deserve love.

True love

Why does true love wait?

           

                     Many young couple would say " were in love, so what are we waiting for?. Many young people nowadays whether non Christians and even non Christians struggle about this immoral issue. Sad to say premarital sex became unstoppable problem to almost teens and unmarried couples. In fact this can proves even in the present situation we are in. And this phenomenon is greatly rampant in this generation. You can see now a days many massive women have been victimized by unwanted pregnancies and even incurable diseases but  not only women but also men as well. I feel sorry for them because of just one mistake but I believe every situations in our life has a purpose. And I also believe that everybody deserves a second chance.

             According to the book I have read about true love waits it was said that Sexual pressures on kids are all time high. their friends, peers, and many of their adult role models are succumbing to the pressures of a sex crazed society that mocks biblical abstinence as puritanical and irrelevant. Surrounded by a permissive society that accepts and even glorifies casual sex, students today are wrestling with sexual decisions that previous generations never had to face. Many for the kids, those decisions are made with little thought about the consequence. As what I have noticed now a days young people in this generation tend to ignore traditional and biblical beliefs and tend to compromise to the ways of the world.


             Many struggle about dealing with physical desires even some Christians do. Well we are human in nature and commits sin. We are given the gift of freedom however freedom doesn't excuse us from sin. That is why life here on earth is called the battle field of good and evil.Christian youth accept the Bible's authority on many issues but struggle when it comes to morality and lifestyle choices. They are aware that the biblical places clear limitations on sexual activity, but they consider these limitations merely old fashioned, overly strict rules for a different time and place, but they have a hard time accepting that God would intend the same precepts to apply to them in the first century.As people in this society, as friends to our peers, and a sister/brother to our siblings we should let them understand the reason surrounding God's rules so that they wouldn't arrive to the greater failures of their lives. But behind every negative commandment in the Bible there are two loving motivation, one is to protect us, and the other is to provide us.

             I have even friends, acquaintances, and even classmates who got pregnant at early age and sad to say it somehow affected their lives and I am afraid it would happen to someone close to me. So if you feared those consequences, beware and learn how to wait for the right time.This consequence could be one of the most important reasons why abstinence of premarital sex is important. Having premarital sex could destroy oneself emotionally, physically,  and spiritually. It may greatly affect our lives in general. So if you are in a relationship right now, you must better maintain the standards among yourself and remain the respect to yourself and to your partner. Don't be afraid if your boyfriend will threaten you to have break up ,because you won't allow  to have sex with him. Just remember that if he truly loves you he will patiently wait until the wedding day.And if he's not, then he's not worth waiting for and he is not the one God intended you to have. Even though it hurts ,but sooner or later you will realize that your decision wasn't a mistake at all. God's promises are true:-) And even if you already given your virginity to someone else, God is willing to forgive you and restore you though not literally but in the eyes of God you are now pure. Reserved it until the day of your wedding day. But for you, not to be astray again, continue to seek His words then you will find peace in your heart and love from above.:-)
