Go now, a child of God. Choose well the road you take,
And the decisions you make. Keep in mind always that The God you serve continues to call to you, making you more and more every day into the faithful one God wants you to be.

Thirty-eight

Song of Solomon 8:6
“Love is as strong as death…Love bursts into flames and burns like a hot fire.”

I have this overwhelming feeling of sadness today. I don’t believe that love is easy to let go of regardless of the circumstances.

I started this month praying for some Joy. Ok it’s only been six days so I’m being impatient.

Lost love is like a death. I am grieving.

I’m grumbling more than I am glowing. The lesson I am supposed to learn from this is that even these difficult days, I am supposed to count them all as Joy.
Easier said than done.
When I learn to accept that I am going to be single, the blessings are going to outnumber the bruises.

A change in season, a change in me.

I love you even if you are reading this and I don’t know you , and if I do know you, you know without a doubt that I love you.
I love you because of the love I know from God and Jesus Christ.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father.

  1. I love the Song of Solomon, but found this an interesting passage to ponder during a season of grief. but then I don't know the circumstances, I only came to your blog today. Have you read 5:2-8? I hope your season of grief is turning into a season of joy.

  2. Song of Solomon 5 verses 2-8 is about longing. these verses are moving.

    Why think of love during grief about an end of a relationship? sometimes we ponder at the end of a relationship- what made me love that person to begin with - were they always this way??- Yes, things happen and there are times of anger, but what you have to ask is did you ever really love the other person and did they ever really love you?
    I selected this verse because love wasn't always hurtful.
    Love remains love.
    Consider how we love; show love and give love and it can come back to you - maybe not with in the way we wanted it or who we we wanted it with, but don't give up on love because of a heartbreak. There are a lot of people to love and will love you back.
    I hope this made sense.
