There are different kinds of love but the highest form of is the AGAPE .
A kind of love that that is selfless,sacrificial and unconditional love. It is a love that go beyond the boundary of emotions. The product of it can be test or see in actions. Sometimes as human as we are we usually deals love more on emotions or feelings.
Before in this way I picture out love, If we both have the same feelings, we shared same dreams . If He/she understands me. Every time I'm down she is always there for me, to be my helping hand and a shoulder to cry on.All the qualities I've been looking for is already present in his name. Then, for me those reasons are enough to stay and love her all the way.
As the time goes by, feelings eventually changing . I could no longer feel the hotness of her embraced. Hearing the words "ILOVEYOU" is now causing me pain because it is putting me in the line between believing if it is still true or it becomes meaningless words for you. And the day has come that you finally made a decision to cut the string that connects our two hearts . I've tried to tie back and collects the broken pieces but I can do nothing about it,you said my decision is final.
I came to a realization that no matter how hard we tried to loved someone with all of our heart will never guarantee to make that someone stays with you forever. The world will continue to revolve around its orbit. As my world revolving someone crossed at my journey. And she is the one who introduce and let me understand what is the greatest love that should need to be seek.
Let's build a relationship with GOD first before anything else . She keep on telling me that no need to rush. Waiting for God's perfect timing will be the best option that we need to take. He's timing is perfect. I am now really in love with this girl ,a person who serve as God's instrument for me to go closer to Him. A woman who opened my eyes to see the other face of love,that HIS love is the best example of love in the entire universe. No matter how many times we've neglected His essence but still He never leave our side.
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. (John 3:16, ESV). And these are evidence that will support of how much he loved us. His teaching emphasis the value of love towards God and to all human race.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another. (John 13:34-35, ESV)
Our God is such an amazing God. And in the future relationships I will be facing . This verse from the Corinthians will serve as my guide to handle relationships.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast;
it is not arrogant 5 or rude.
It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;
6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.
7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away.
Let all that you do be done in love. (1 Corinthians 16:14, ESV)
We may have different views of what really love is, but no one could ever overlap His love towards us.
I've decided to repost this for the reason that in able to expressed my idea of what and how I've found the other definition and face of love :)
