Emmanuel .. God with us

Have we ever loved someone... have we ever loved someone to the point you wanna just tell them but stopped short when suddenly logic overcomes us and we fear rejection or maybe something bad might happen?? say.. ure friendship with that person could be lost or the relation gets strained due to the new found knowledge??

Today while i was pondering about it... i realise something abit parallel to it. What if in the same quirky way.. God has the same problem as us .. with the difference being that he already declared his love for us. The problem being he declared his love for us but we not reciprocating it. Some embrace it, but the sad fact is alot more turn away from it.

It just hit me.. i mean like it must be very hurtful to want to love someone that probably doesnt love you back as much .... or at all for that reason. Being attached before gave me a good experience and insight of how wonderful it is to be a relationship but.. it was the breaking up that taught me the most.. about the absence of having someone there with you. Have we experienced that before?? i know mine was just utterly gut wrenching, i probably dehydrated myself crying and my mood was foul and mean to everyone that tried to comfort me.. then after which regret set in and just killed whatever purpose life meant to me.

I took me almost 2 whole yrs to get over the situation but i wanna encourage anyone reading this that there is one person to turn to in all circumstances, . And its none other than Jesus Christ

Matthew 28:20b says this very famous and powerful verse "And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age"

no matter how trying it could be, no matter how tough any situation, no matter how happy you can be. Jesus is with us.. yesterday, today and forever...

But friends... the message that i would like to put across is this...

if it pains you to love someone that doesnt love you back. How much more when God loves us, but we not loving him back.

Thanks for reading =)
