When God Writes Your Love Story

Do you ever watch a love story and at the end you are not satisfy with how two protagonist ended with each other? Many people would say, “ang pangit ng ending” ( the ending is not good) and would probably say that “sana ganito ang naging ending..” (I wish it’ll be ended like this). Well, its a common response everytime we watch films and it end up beyond or different from what we expect or the way the ending would be. I always told my friends when they are telling those words that, “wala tayong magagawa, hindi naman tayo ang director” (we can’t do anything about it since we are not the director). In our lives or in our own love story, sometimes we are also commanding and dictating the way our story should become inspite of the fact that like just the movie, there is a director that must be followed. Because of we are the one who choose to be the director of our life instead of God, we ended up being discouraged and being hurt because we didn’t want to follow the director of the movie entitled “our life”. Just like a movie, sometimes we want to fast forward things and get to the highlights or the climax without seeing the events that must happen before it and at the end, all that we have is regrets because we had made a wrong decisions and judgements.

Who is the author of your love story? Is it you? The reality is this, we may have the right to choose the thing that we wanted for our life specially in our lovelife but we cannot choose the consequence of every decisions that we make in our lives. Just like a movie, we are just a mere actor and actress and the director is the one who create the directions of the story.

Who is the director of our love story? Is it your family, friends or environment by where you belong? Your family might be a good choice to consider in making decisions about your lovelife but still, the reality is that they are still human and could also make ideas that is wrong. Our friends could also be a good choice but sometimes they can only make you do things to tolerate you from doing what you want just to make you happy and even the environment or the culture where you belong doesn’t make sense specially these days that it was corrupted and distorted.

Who is the director of your love story? Whether it is a director or an author, the best person that you could ever rely on is none other than HIM, The LORD. From the very start, HE has a good plan for our lives including our lovelife. HE also created the biggest greatest love story on earth, and it is not just a story but a reality that God had become flesh, a human just like us to take all the punishment, climb up the hill with a cross in HIS back and carry all the sin and died for us so that the Beautiful plan that the LORD had for us may happen. Would you like GOD to be the author or director of your love story? God is love and if there is someone who can direct your life particularly your lovelife, is it none other the the LORD who is the the author and beginning of LOVE. The LOVE that leads us to heaven and eternal life is the LOVE of the LORD. If HE is the author of your love story, everything will be ok knowing that HE has set a happy, good and beautiful ending to your love story. A love story who had been founded and rooted in HIS love will end with a “beautiful ending”, you and your partner being in the presence of GOD in heaven forever.

Would you want HIM to be the author of your love story? Well I do want, how about you?

Inside The White Room

I open my eyes and had been shock to see that I was in a white room. There is no window and door on this room. Everywhere I turn my eyes, all I can see is white walls, white ceiling and white floors. I am on a panic that all that is in my mind is that I am stock in this place and there’s no way for me to get out. When I started screaming, suddenly my eyes had been opened as my “nanay” try to wake me up because I was having a nightmare. As i seen my nanay, I was so thankful that it is only a dream and wishing that I will not be in that place again. It happens when I was still 7 years old.

10 years after that freaky and weird nightmare had happened, one night when I come from my school tired and exhausted I get early to my bed and fall asleep. Suddenly, a sound of something like someone is knocking at the door just ruin my sleep so I forcefully try to push myself up and wake up from sleeping, and as I open my eyes, I was shock to see that I was in the white room again.

After ten years, I was in the same room again, nothing had change aside from a door is already existing compare to the last time that I had been there. As i rush near to the door intending to open it, I found out that it is lock and whatever I do it can’t be open. I try to shout for help hoping that someone’s gonna hear and help me but it seems that no one is there aside from me. I was teary and praying to God, pleading for His help that I might get out of the weird white room or to wake me up from this nightmare if this is only a bad dream. I felt the feeling of loneliness knowing that I am alone and already spending a lot of my time in this white room. I want to get out from it from I don't know how until a sound coming from the door had got my attention, someone had opening the door from the outside. I stand up and run rushing to the door and as I am going to open it, my eyes had been opened again and I realize that it’s another nightmare as my nanay and kuya almost slapping my face for me to wake up. Again, for the second time I was very thankful that it is only a dream and I had able to get out of it.

I don’t want to get back on that place, never again. Four years had past and I am already in my last year in college. That day is the busiest day ever in my life, our qualifying exams, which took place on Saturday and Sunday as we spent eight hours of non-stop draining exams. As expected, I got home very tired and prefer to go to my bed and sleep early rather than to go at the kitchen and eat something to filled my empty stomach. I fell asleep, and then i felt that someone is trying to wake me up from sleeping so I opened my eyes thinking that my brother might making some fun with me while I was sleeping. I open my eyes and what I see makes me terrified that I was in the same white room again but this time aside from a door, there is already a window. In my desperation to get out of that room, thinking that it is only a mere nightmare, I try to slap my face to make myself be awaken. I did my best to slap my face but nothing’s happening and I still at the white room and it seems that I am not dreaming or either it is a nightmare. Slowly, I stand up and walk close to the door and tried to open it and i found out that it is locked from the outside. Since the door is lack, I’ve try to see if the windows is also locked and it is indeed locked. I don’t want to panic so I try to think of what I can do in those times and without any means of getting out from the white room, I started to pray and ask the LORD of what HE want to tell me with the instances that I was in the white room for the third time.

While I am praying, the window had been opened and it stop me. I get up and stand, slowly walking near the window and try to see what’s in the outside. As i get my face near to the window, I was surprised to see that it looks like a television screen with a movie being played. As i watch closely, what I see is my church mates who keeps on waking up a person. As i look closely, I see that it was me, unconscious and had fall down after leaning on the door of the comfort room. I was in a panic that I already thinking that I might be dead already until the door of the white room had opened by itself. I run as fast as I can to get out of that room by passing by the open door and then a strange light blinded me and as I open my eyes, four people is already lifting me. It took me a couple of minute before I regain my strength and be able to get up by myself. My best friend just told me that I had collapse while waiting outside the comfort room to take my turn to get inside. From that day, as mommy who is a nurse try to treat me and get my blood pressure find out that I am already high blood. That is the day that I had know that something’s wrong with my body.
Until now, i was thinking of why I was in that white room repeatedly. I don’t know why, but what i know is, “God want me take care of HIS temple”. I don’t want to be in that white room again.

CHRIST COMPASSION

Jesus is compassionate to all people. This is the truth that the LORD had taught as i read, meditate amd study HIS word specifically in John chapter 4. This chapter speaks about the samaritan woman by whom had the greatest time of her life when he got face to face with the Lord Jesus Christ. With the story of the encounter of the samaritan woman, there are 5 things by which the LORD shows compassion to us.

1. "your life matters to HIM (The Lord Jesus)"

what ever is your darkest past, what ever is your failures in life, whatever bad things you had done in your past, this is not what the Lord is looking or trying to find to us. Want matters to HIM is your life, HE cares for us that give everything even HIS life on the cross that we might see that there is a way for us to be frred from all the sin that is slaving us, that makes us worthless and without a good future. Your life matters to HIM, thats the very reason why HE died at the Cross that you might find the life with purpose and worth of living with the assurance of salvation through HIM.

2. "HIS priority is a ministry for a person"

The LORD want us to experince HIS marvelous and wondrous work in our lives. His priority is to work in our lives that HE might changes us and transform us into HIS image.

3. "HIS priority is to proclaim the Truth"

the truth is this, we are all sinner just like the samaritan woman. Because of our sin, what we deserve is eternal punishment at hell. But because the LORD has compassion for us, HE came from heaven unto the earth to show us that there is a way for us to be saved and to experience God's presence in our life. The LORD had to deal with our sins and HE chose the path going to the cross that all that will truly belive (faith) in HIM might find freedom from sin unto God's righteousness.

4. "The LORD has the Power to give contentment in our lives"

we are all longing for something that makes our life uncomfortable and not good at all. Just like the samaritan, The LORD has it all to satisfy our thirst. Not like an ordinary water, the living water of that comes from the LORD gives a lot of contentment in our life. Contentment because what the LORD had given to us is a total package of Love, Mercy, Grace, Joy, Eternal Life and Forgiveness. What more can we ask more? And lastly,

5. "The LORD has the Power to change our Lives"

whatever things that you might done in the past, it is not a prerequisite to God's grace to us. But one thing is certain, the LORD wants to change us and be transform and become HIS soul winners. Working with a renewed and a heart that is always after to HIS will.

Thank you LORD for you are always there. My life matters to the LORD. To God be the glory.

NEED TO SLOW DOWN THINGS..

This past days, it seems that a lot of things on working and loaded in my head. Because of it, my migraine struck again and make me incapable of thinking and doing things, that’s why last night I was lying on the bed for a longer period of time just to make the headache gone. This morning, I decided not to wake up early but instead I let my body and mind have a rest even though I have to skip my breakfast. I’ve tried to evaluate things and I find out one thing: “I’m trying to do things and to think all at the time”. This is the reason why this past days I feel so bad that a headache is always trying to rob my days. With the stuff about my work, my ministry, making plans for the upcoming events, thinking of my topic/messages for the next week on PGC and a lot of things makes me unproductive as I try to figure them out all at a time. The Lord had teach me another lesson, this time He’s trying to tell me to “slow down and think, do and make things one a time only”. I cannot do things at once, that’s the limitation of my mind and body. And another thing that I learned, I doesn’t need to do things alone, GOD is there to help and to surpass any limitation that I have. I thank GOD for another lesson that I need to learn and apply in my life. With all of this, there might be a lot of demanding things that may be waiting to be done but what I must do is not to rush on but to slow down and see what the Lord had want me to do first. To God be the glory.

Chapter 2: FEAR OF BEING ALONE (LONELINESS)

CHAPTER 2

FEAR OF BEING ALONE (LONELINESS)

        “Bawat tao sa mundo ay mayroong kinakatakutan”. Ang takot ay isang pagkaraniwan na emosyon na ang bawat  tao ay nakakranas at isa sa pinakapangkaraniwan na pinagdaraanan ng lahat ay “Fear of Being alone” o “Loneliness”. Marami sa mga tao ang takot na mag-isa, mapabata, kabataan o maging matatanda ay mayroong takot na ganito. Natatandaan ko pa ng ako ay nasa kolehiyo, ang bawat isa sa mga kaibigan at maging kaeskwela ko ay takot na maging mag-isa sa buhay kaya marami sa kanila ay sumubok na makipagrelasyon para matugunan ang nasabing takot. Ang nakaklungkot, ng dahil sa solusyon na akala nila ay makaksatugon sa kanilang takot ay ginawa nila ay ito rin ang nagdulot ng matinding sakit, paghihinayang at mas malaking takot . Ang “Fear of being Alone or Loneliness ay isang pangkaraniwang sakit at problema lalong lalo na sa mga “singles” o “single again”. Marami ang nalalaglag sa kumunoy na kung tawagin ay “pag-ibig” na ng dahil sa maling pagtugon sa takot na mag-isa ay nasa estado ngayon na sila ay “Love-Stuck”. Isang napakahalagang bagay na matugunan ng maayos ang problema tungkol sa takot na mag-isa lalong-lalo na sa mga Kristiyano. Marami sa mga “Christian Singles” ang nalalayo, lumalayo at nalayo ng dahil sa takot na ito na buhay nila ay madalas nilang nararamdaman ngunit dahil hindi ito natugunan na maayos at ng ayon sa katotohanan sa Sailta ng Panginoon ay nagdulot ng matinding sakit sa kanila. Maraming mga “Christian Singles” na di matatawaran ang “passion” as paglilingkod sa Panginoon ngunit sa isang saglit ay bigla na lamang inagaw na “maling pag-ibig” dahil sa mas pinili nila na tugunan ang kanilang “takot na mag-isa” sa pamamagitan na pakikipagrelasyon o pag-aasawa as mga taong hindi naman inilaan at ayon sa Kalooban ng Diyos. Mga kristianong mas pinili ang pag-ibig upang tugunan ang sariling pangangailangan kaysa sa pag-ibig ng Panginoon na higit na makagbibigay ng kasapatan sa buhay natin kung magagawa lamang nating maghintay sa Kanyang kalooban. Ano nga ba talaga ang ibig sabihin ng “Fear of Being Alone or Loneliness” o ang takot na maging mag-isa?

Ano nga ba ang “LONELINESS”?

Loneliness is a painful sense of being unwanted, unneeded, uncared for, maybe even unnecessary.

Ang sabi sa pag-aaral, ang tao daw ay may tatlong “basic emotional needs”, ito ay:

1.    A need for someone to love and someone to love us.

2.    A need for someone who understands us, who knows how we feel.

3.    A desire for somebody who wants us and needs us.

Ang lahat ng tao may pangangailan sa mga bagay na ito, yan ang katotohanan. Kung ang pangangailangan na ito ay hindi mabibigyan na tamang kasagutan na nakaugat sa katotohanan ng Salita ng Panginoon, ito ang magiging dahilan upang ang isang “Christian Single” O “Single Again” ay malayo o tuluyang lumayo sa Panginoon.

Loneliness: “Toothache of the Soul”

May isang unknown writer ang nagsabi, “Loneliness is one of life's most miserable experiences”. Pangkaraniwan man ang karanasan na maging mag-isa, ang bawat panahon na ito ay nangyayari sa atin ay nagpapahag ng isang mensahe.

Madalas kapag nakakaranas tayo ng pag-iisa ay tumatagal lamang ito ng minute o ng oras, o kahit isang araw. Ngunit kung ito ay tumagal na ng lingo, buwan o taon ay nag-sisignal ito na mayroon nang problema.

“Parang sakit lamang ng ngipin ang Loneliness”, Ito ay isang “warning signal” na mayroong problema. Tulad ng isang simpleng sakit ng ngipin, kung hindi ito agad aagapan ay maaaring lumalala ito.

“Loneliness is a Crippling Force”

“Loneliness cripples” o ito na nakakapagpabagsak sa ating personalidad at ng ating buhay.

1.    Loneliness cripples us emotionally. Ayon sa pag-aaral, ang pinakamalimit na dahilan kung bakit nagpapakamatay ang isang tao ay dahil sa “Loneliness”. Kapag ang isang tao ay iniisip na mag-isa na siya habang buhay, naiisip nila na wakasan na lamang ang kanilang buhay. Kaya napakahalagang parte ng buhay na maaring bumagsak ay ang ating emosyon kapag tayo ay nakakaranas ng “loneliness”.

2.    Loneliness will hurt us physically. Ayon sa pag-aaral, karamihan ng mga taong inaatake ng sakit sa puso ay mga taong malulungkutin, “depressed” at laging nag-iisa (lonely). Ang pagiging mag-isa ay nagdudulot din o nakakaapekto sa physical na aspeto n gating buhay. May mga taong malakas kumain lalo na kung may mga kasama nguniy kapag sila ay nag-iisa ay nagiging pihikan at kaunti kumain na nagdudulot upang humina ang kanilang pangangatawan.

3.    Loneliness cripples us spiritually. Ang sabi ng isa sa aming elders sa church, ang isang bisita daw umattend sa church service, kapag walang kumausap, panigurado ay hindi na babalik sa susunod na lingo. At ito ay napatunayan na sa maraming taon sa inglesia. Ang isang kristiyano single man o hindi,m kapag naramdaman niya na siya ay nag-iisa bagamat marami siyang nakaksalamuha sa inglesia ay unti-unting manghihinana at ang pinakamasamang pwedeng mangyari ay ang tumigil siya sa pag-aatend o lumayo hindi lamang sa inglesia kundi sa Panginoon na mismo. Kapag ang isang kristiyano ay hindi na makatagpo ng “encouragement” at “belongingness”, dito nagsisimula na maramdaman niya na siya ay nag-iisa at mawala ang kanyang “fellowship” sa kapwa kristiyano at tuluyang manghina ang espiritwal na buhay o ang relasyon nito sa Panginoon.

Maling pakahulugan about “Loneliness”

Maraming pakahulugana ng tao patungkol sa “takot na mag-isa”, pero ang katotohanana ay marami tayong maling pakahulugan patungkol dito. Tatlo sa mga “misconception” na ito ay ang mga sumusunod:

1.    Loneliness is not solitude.

Minsan ay may mga pagkakataong gusto natin ng katahimikan. At sa mga panahong ito, hindi naman ito “signs” na Lonely ka. Maging ang Panginoong Hesus ay may panahon  ng “solitude” o “panahon ng pag-iisa” upang magkaroon ng panahon na makiniig at makinig sa Diyos Ama. Ganoon din sa atin, minsan kailangan nating magkaroon ng panahon ng “pag-iisa”, katahimikan at kapayapaan hindi dahil sa tayo ay nag-iisa kundi nais lamang natin na magkaroon na panahon para sa Panginoon.

2.    Loneliness is not lonesomeness.

Ang katotohanan, “you might be alone, but never be lonely”. Kailanman ay hindi ka magiging “lonely” dahil sa nandyan ang ating mga kapamilya, kapatid, kapuso at mag kaibigan. May panahon lamang talaga na mag-isa ka dahil sa kabisihan ng buhay ngunit kalian man ay hindi ka magiging “lonely”. Ang sabi sa Mateo 1:23, ang pangalan ng Panginoon Hesus ay “Emmanuel” na ang ibig sabihin ay kasama natin ang Diyos. Kailanman ay hindi tayo mag-iisa dahil ng ginawa ng Panginoon Hesus na ibigay ang kanyang buhay sa krus ng kalbaryo at nuling nabuhay ay nagbigay daan ito upang maging poisble na makasama natin ang Diyos sa ating buhay.

3.    Loneliness is not isolation.

May mga panahon na kailangang alisin mo ang sarili mo sa piling ng napakaraming tao na nakapaligid sa atin ngunit hindi ito nangangahulugan na ito ay pag-iisa o “loneliness”. Dahil sa ingay ng mundong ating ginagalawan minsan kahit gusto mo ng katahimikan ay hindi mo ito mahahanap unless na lang kung magkakaroon ka ng panahon para “mapag-isa” at i-“relax” ang isipang napapagod sa bawat araw. Sa maraming pagkakataon, mas gugustuhin din nating ilayo ang ating sarili sa grupo ng tao lalo na kung alam nating mali ang ginagawa at pinaggagagawa nila. Sabihan man nila tayo na “patay na bata” o “walang pakikisama” ay mas ok na ang mag-isa basta’t alam natin na ang ating ginagawa ay para sa kaluwalhatian ng Panginoon.

Bakit ba mayroong “Loneliness”?

Ayon sa pag-aaral, ang ilan sa mga sumusunod ay ang dahilan kung bakit tayo nagiging lonely:

1.    Past Rejections – Maaring maraming beses ka nang nakakaranas na di pagtanggap ng iba o di tamang pakikitungo sa iyo ng iba na dahil dito ay mas gugustuhin mo na lamang na mag-isa upang maiwasan at wag nang maranasan pang muli ang “rejection”.

2.    Insecurity – Kapag ang tingin mo sa iyong sarili ay sadyang napakababa kaysa sa iba, nagdudulot ito upang tayo ay matakot na ilapit an gating sarili sa iba. Nagdudulot ito upang ilayo ang ating sarili dahil tingin natin ay higit na nakatataas ang ilan at hindi tayo nababagay san a makasama nila.

3.    Grief – Kapag feeling mo ikaw lang ang nasasaktan at walang makakaintindi sa iyo, ito ang magbubunsod sa isang tao upang ilayo ang kanyang sarili at mamuhay  sa kalungkutan na nag-iisa.

4.    Self-centeredness – Kapag lahat ng bagay gusto mong sarilinin, mapa-kayamanan o anumang material na bagay na may halaga at maging ang problema na iyong dinadala ay nagiging dahilan ito upang maranasan mo ang pagiging “lonely” sa buhay.

5.    Sinful Lifestyle – Kung ang isang tao ay namumuhay sa kasalanan, ito mismo ang pinakadelikadong estado na nagdudulot upang maranasan mo ang “loneliness”. “Sin creates walls”, walls that will drive us away from others and the saddest truth is that our sin drives us away from the presence of the Lord. Kung titignan mo ang istorya ni cain, ang sabi sa Genesis 4:12, “Ikaw ay magiging palaboy at pagala-gala sa lupa”. Ng dahil sa kasalanan ni Cain, imbis na maranasan niya na lagging makasama ang Diyos ay hindi ito nangyari bagkus ay naging isa siyang palabaoy at pagalagala na ang buhay ay tila laging nag-iisa.

Mga MALING GAMOT para “Fear of Loneliness”

1.    “Busy ako” attitude – Akala ng iba kahat magiging busy sila sa iba’t-ibang gawain ay hindi na nila maiisip o mararamdaman na nag-iisa o “lonely” ang isang tao. Kung ito ay gagawing gamut para sa “loneliness”, para lamang uminom ng gamot para sa sakit ng ngipin na ang tunay na  remedy ay ang bunutin ang masakit na ipin. “Busyness is only a distraction, not a cure”.

2.    “Shopping Galore” drama – kung i-try mo kayang i-“treat” at bigyan ng “reward ang iyong sarili, makakagamot kaya ito? Ang sagot, siyempre hindi. Maaring mapasaya ka ng mga bagay na maari mong bilhin para sa ating sarili at mawala ang ating “feeling of loneliness” temporarily o pansamantala. Para ka lamang bumili ng pampamanhid para mawala ang sakit ngunit makaraan ang ilang oras ay babalik din ang sakit na mas grabe pa sa una.

3.    “In a Relationship” Status – Maaring ang maging solusyon ng iba ay ang magkaroon ng “intimate relationship” upang matugunan ang kanilang “lonely problem”. Maaring piliin ng iba na makipagrelasyon at i-try ang “sex” upang matugunan ang kanilang “loneliness” ngunit ito ay isang “false cure” o maling kasagutan na kung gagawin at ipagpapatuloy ay magdala lamang ng mas marami at malaking problema.

Kung ang mga ito ay hindi ang tamang solusyon, ano ba ang tamang solusyon sa “takot ng pag-iisa” o “fear of being alone o loneliness”? Para masagoot natin ang katanungan na ito, dapat maintindihan muna natin kung ano ba talaga ang kahulugan ng “Loneliness”.

“Loneliness is God's way of telling you that you have a relationship problem.”

Ito ang katotohan, kung bakit may loneliness ay dahil mayroong problema. Lahat tayo ay mayroong relationship problem na dapat gamutin. Lahat tayo ay may relationship problem sa Diyos. Ang sabi sa Roma 1:18:

“Sapagkat ang poot ng Diyos ay nahahayag mula sa langit laban sa lahat ng kalikuan at kasamaan ng mga tao, na sa pamamagitan ng kanilang kasamaan ay pinipigil ang katotohanan.”

Dahil sa ating mga kalikuan at kasalanan, nasira ang pinakamahalagang relasyon na dapat ay maranasan ng tao, iyon ay ang relasyon natin sa Diyos. Ng dahil sa kasalanan, habang buhay tayong nalayo sa Diyos at lahat tayo patutungo sa kamatayan[1].  Kung Maaayos ang relasyon sa Diyos, ito ang pasimula upang magamot at masolusyunan ang “takot sa pag-iisa o loneliness na mayroon sa ating buhay.

What is the Solution for “Fear of Loneliness”?

          It is not about what but it is about who is the Solution? The solution is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Kung mayroong kasagutan sa problemang ito, iyon ay walang iba kundi ang Panginoong Hesus. Kung mayroon mang higit na nakakaintindi ng salitang “loneliness”, iyon ay walang iba kundi ang Panginoong Hesus. Magmula ng siya ay hulihin upang pahirapan at ipako sa krus ay naranasan na niya na iwan ng mga alagad na lagi niyang nakakasama[2]. Naranasan niya ang ipagkaila ng kanyang kaibigan ng tatlong beses[3] at sa pagbubuhat  ng krus ay wala rin siyang kasama at hanggang sa krus ay narasanan niya ang maging mag-isa na maging ang Diyos Ama ay pinabayaan siya[4]. Alam ng Panginoon at naranasan niya ang lahat ng pag-iisa ngunit kailanman ay hindi siya natakot dahil kinailangan niya itong gawin upang tayo ay mapalaya sa takot ng pag-iisa.

Paano ko mararanasan ang Kalayaan na na kay Kristo?

Kung tatanggapin mo at pananampalatayaan mo na si Jesu-Kristo ay namatay para sa iyong mga kasalanan, aaminin mo na hindi mo kayang iligtas ang iyong sarili at tanging si Krsito lamang ang makapagliligtas sa iyo at tunay mong pagsisisihan ang iyong mga kasalanan ay mararanasan mo ang Kalayaan na ito na na kay Kristo. Hindi ka na dapat matakot pa dahil kailanman ay hindi ka mag-iisa dahil ang pangako ng Panginoon ay lagi Niya tayong makakasama hanggang sa katapusan ng mundo[5]. Ang pangako niya ay kailanman ay hindi tayo iiwan, ni pababayaan man[6].

Three Truths to Remember

1.    GOD loves us even though we never love HIM[7]. The greatest love that will give satisfaction in our Life is God’s Love. If our love is founded and rooted in His love, we will be able to love and find love from others in God’s own way. For this reason, we will never be alone.

2.    GOD understand everything about us and HE is always ready to listen whenever we need HIM.

3.    GOD wants us to be saved[8], so He sent HIS son to die at the Cross so that you might be able to be with HIM in Heaven.
