What is love?
Many always see it as an idea of romantic relationship. A
flower, a gift, a selfie together, declares love’s grandeur concept. It is true
that loving feelings are a gift indeed. You don’t always experience that with
everyone, it takes someone special, some one who means a lot to you. It is
something that takes time to grow and flourish.
I, have ever seriously questioning the meaning of love, few
years back. I was both confused and curious on how the concept of love is
translated. Not that I have an unhappy childhood or bad experience in love
(well, not to that point). But I asked myself whether love has more meanings
than that.
Yes, that.
When someone holds your hand.
Late night conversations.
Exchanging gifts.

Love starts by giving. And it stops when nothing more is
received.
I ended up with that conclusion at first. I may seem to
overthink this matter so much, hey? Don’t we all though, have ever think about
it too?
I do not know since when, I realized that my faith means so
much for me. Why does it always have to go back to this, you may ask. Cause it
was all begin from it. Faith took me here. When life has take over, I begin to
truly understand why I need Jesus in my life.
There’s always going to be this void inside all of us. You
know, the drive for something. The desire. We have all fallen, and we know that
we are not perfect. And we want that ‘cushion’ that bit where we can lay our
head to, that voice that tells us everything is going to be OKAY.
Love gives us that.

God is love, but don’t make love as your god.
It’s Valentine today. Everyone seems to be a bit cheery,
maybe because of the chocolates, or simply because we singles don’t want to
look too pathetic today. We still got it.
We are fine, world.
I am though, grateful.
I know the Lord loves me, as He has given himself for me. A true meaning
of love itself – when somebody laid down his life for you.
I am amazed. How He would even care for to know my desires.
That He won’t laugh at my dreams. That He still gives me the miracle of life
every morning when I open my eyes.
I feel safe – knowing that He is mighty. That He is God who
can do the impossible, until this day. That He is a God who still answers
prayers and care for your matters.
I am glad. That He is faithful, even when I am not. That He
is steadfast and constant in my life.
He is Saviour, He is my rock.
He is Jesus and He is love.
