Never Say Never

I have realized through life nothing is certain. Happy moments wont always stay joyous and thankfully sadness also passes. Life is full of times that make you wonder how you are going to go on, where to go, and if you will ever see yourself smile again. Thankfully God knows what is going to happen and is there in our despair, taking these times to change, and enrich our lives if we let him. It's hard when things seem too hard but if not, healing cant begin. You can never say you will never find joy again or love someone with everything you have. It happens without you knowing it and soon enough you are in a new season of your life. In pain is the time where i write the best, its the time where i have the most clear thoughts of reflection. I think God uses pain for our good. If we were always happy it would be too easy to forget our need for his grace. When we go through something seemingly unbearable is when we realize how weak we are without him. I dont wish pain on anyone but i do wish encounters with Jesus on everyone. His love has shown me that no matter when the outcome of our current situation you can never say never. He knows the desires of our heart and works all things together for our good. Stepping out in faith is hard. It goes against our comfort, desires, and our heart often tells us not to.But when we do, he might just restore something thats been broken, help you pick the pieces up and put it back together into something more beautiful than before. If we trust he will always give us just enough stregth to stand what we are facing.

A little insight on relationships

Men and Women are different people all around. Men want respect and admiration and women want love and security. Although these are the desires of our heart people constantly put themselves in positions that will only yield the opposite. Women who want to be loved try to attract a man with looks and acting like she is holding it all together. When she gets a man he is looking at her body and not her soul. Men want a women who will find him to be a success so he buys her things and makes her feel special. She loves it and thinks "this is love" only to be dissapointed when the flowers stop coming and the compliments dwindle away. I see so much pain in relationships that don't focus on the one who created them. Being in a relationship without Jesus is like trying to put together something without a manuel. There are so many screws, nails and pieces that you dont even know where to bein to pick up the pieces. When you try something it doesnt fit, and you might even try to force the project into completion only to look at it and realize that it is unstable and not how the picture is suppose to look. This is exactly how God sees relationships that dont bring glory to him. They might try but their attempts end up in dissapointment and frustration. You might even want to take the bed, or in this case your partner back and exchange it. This is where frustration leads to wondering eyes and infedelity. You have you realize its not the bed's fault, its that you dont care to follow any directions to make it secure and a successful project. I believe that a lot of couples throw around the word love too casually. Love is not a phrase its an action, its a lifestyle. It's saying i Love you and nobody else. I love you enough to be vulnerable, i love you enough to put my pride aside, i love you enough to care what you think more than anyone else, i love you enough to want to make this stable, i love you enough to follow the manuel. I will say that there are a lot of relationships who dont have Jesus and still work. I believe that they might be happy but when though times comes the only person who gives us hope is God, not humans. Having the drive means changes in actions. I by no means am a perfect human being. I have many flaws, too many that i want to start working on all at once, but i do realize that in my brokenness jesus came to die for me. In my sinful nature Jesus saw who i could become and chose me. I wish that relationships would realize the gift God gave us by giving us a partner. Someone in life to be bestfriends with. To say nice words to and to fight with him to have a wonderful future. There is a point when you relaize that something needs to be done and its at this point where you see the stregth in your partner. Do they fight? Do they cope in disrespectful ways? Or do they run to you, pray with you and be an example of someone you want to lead. I think as we date and head towards marriage more people need to realize that when you love unconditionally God will bring you back together. I believe in his power above all else.
