driven by passion
"You're
becoming what drives me," the guy whom I've been dating texted.
I replied,
"the key word is 'becoming' :p"
We were
talking about passion and yes, the cat's outta the bag!- good news! i
haven't been dateless lately ;)
During this
time of discovery, i realise that it really is so easy to be intoxicated by and
fixated on the lesser loves of this world. not to disregard a man's love but
just recognising that i can lose sight of God so easily. n I'm so thankful that
He hasn't and has never lost sight of me! In fact, He has been somehow reminding
me throughout this time that it's not soooo much about my love story with
man, but still my love story with Him. n as i experience man's love**, i come to
understand how much more God's love for me is. just take this simple statement
of "you're becoming what drives me". when a man loves his wife and family, they
will be what drives him. comparing that with what God has been doing for his
beloved mankind since the start of all time. EVERYTHING, all His plans, Jesus'
death and resurrection, are for the good of man. All that He has done, All that
He is doing and All that He will do. it's just mind-blowing to try to fathom the
extent of His love for ungrateful man, for me.
I have been
chosen as His and He is mine. Nothing can separate me from His love (Rom
8:38-39). I can't be thankful enough.
**clarification: i am not attached yet and he has not
declared his love for me. i'm just speaking in broader terms.
