Deep in thoughts

Have you ever wake up one day and hope you are in heaven? I do. Many times. I wish I am just in heaven with Jesus so that I do not have to go through all these things. But thats an escape mentality, right? Anyway we will have to face Jesus one day. If I were to meet Him right now, I think He will probably say, "Hello, why are you here..."

But sometimes you really hope that you can have a chance to relax and fly away, fly away to somewhere far, where no one knows who you are. Where you can find a cafe and sipping coffee with the latest magazines on hand, sitting on a couch and listening to your favourite music, smsing the one you love, and looking pretty at the same time.

Thats exactly how I feel now. But the reality is I have many things I need to do. And it seems never ending. Was reading my cousin blog, and thinking what he blog. He blog about LOVE. Love is always the biggest subject in one's life. Even God says the greatest of all is LOVE.

God Love (Agape) is patient and kind, never jealous, envious, boastful or proud, never selfish or rude. Love doesn't demand its own way. Love is not irritable or touchy. Love doesn't hold grudges and will never even notice when others do it wrong. Love is never glad about injustice, but rejoices when truth wins out. If you love someone with real Love, you will be loyal to him no matter what the cost. You will always believe in him, always expect the best of him and always defend him. (A paraphrase of 1 Corinthians 13:4-8.)

God's Love, therefore, is not a human love, but, in fact, is completely opposite. Our natural, human love (the love we were born with) will always be a conditional love that is dependent upon three things: how we feel; what our circumstances are; and how that other person responds to us. In other words, natural love will always seek the good of itself and not the other person and will always be based upon certain reciprocal expectations, "I'll love you, if you'll love me. But, if you stop loving me, I will stop loving you." This is why C.S Lewis calls natural, human love, a "need love." In other words, we need something from the one we love.

Agape is the only Love that can make us whole, meet our needs and give our lives the meaning and purpose that we are all seeking. In other words, it's the "glue" that ties everything together and makes everything possible. Without it, truly we are nothing!

Just to drop some thoughts on SEPARATION...

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. R0m 8:35,39

So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate." Matt 19:6
