I am sure that many or maybe all experience this, during school days when we have crushes or let us say our first love makes us very different. We sometimes can do things which we think very hard but we have done it. Later we realize, oh that was a hard thing to be done but I have made it because of my inspiration.
Love can make us smile and at the same time can make us cry. Smile because of the happiness that it brings but tears because of the pain that it might brings. There is so such thing as permanent and it is good that we experience this though it is painful also because we are learning from the experiences that we have. We learn to move on, compare some differences and see the real essence of what we have and what we don't have.
Love brings so much happiness to me and at the same time heartaches specially things that I never expected comes. Feeling hopeless and the end of the world.
Yes, Edeline, we have to first realize that God loves us like no other. That gives us hope. Then we allow God to help us love our neighbors as ourselves. We are to love our neighbors and ourselves, as well as our enemies. We are to receive God's love and love others as well. With God's love in our hearts, we may get hurt by others, but we can give it over to God and move on. My wife, Carol, is trying to help me do that. I need not to hold hard feelings/hurt feelings but pray to God and let Him take care of me and the person/people who hurt me. I have a daily struggle with this as I am very sensitive, and I get insulted, get my feelings hurt, then I keep those bad feelings in my heart, and I am tempted to want to get even, get back, but that doesn't help at all. Carol tells me I need to have my heart where it needs to be, and then let God take care of the other person, and that is very good advice, but it is hard to practice.
We do get hurt sometimes, but we can allow God to take our part, support us, and help us not to hurt, but to have happy, joyful feelings. We can realize God is with us helping us through each of our days and with every situation.
