"It comes down to relationships. Relationships are what matter, what count.
From fun fellowship, to the depth of friendship.
From the heart of a parent, to the bond of siblings.
From daily companionship, to the intimacy of lovers in marriage.
Relationships, for all they were meant to be and mean to us, even at their best are only a shadow, a fraction, an imperfect, tainted replica of what is meant to be with HIM. At it’s best…our hearts really long for, were designed for, and will only be fulfilled with…unconditional love..."
It all comes down to HIM...No one, no relationship, nothing...can take the place of the ONLY ONE...He is the ONE and ONLY ONE...unconditional love always, blessed Savior, wow...enthralled by this beauty of our Lord and Savior.
SO good and SO true sis.... that is why the classic "chick flick" love stories can put unrealistic standards or pressure on what we girls think dating relationships or marriages are supposed to look like! It is easy to get disappointed when you are waiting for "The Notebook" to begin once you start dating someone... stories like those are just that... stories.
ReplyDeleteAnd whats better, is the tough stuff that couples work through make the sweet stuff soooo sweet. Real life is better than the movies ;) I am glad that you are learning so much, and that ultimately - our fulfillment will only be found in Christ. That is a priceless lesson that many will live their whole lives never learning. God has dealt BOUNTIFULLY with you!
