love is....

What is LOVE?

Before today, i thought i am a person who know how to love a person. Be nice, be kind, be patient, be encouraging, be cheerful, be friendly.

But what is LOVE?? I got a note book from my boyfriend. And the cover of it is with a bible verse. It teaches me how to LOVE and what is LOVE.

"Love is patient Love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast. It is not proud. It is not rude. It is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."

This is one of the most famous quote for a christian and a non-christian. It tells us what is love.

For me, I think i am patient, i am kind. But when i read this verse over and over again, I know Love is not just that. Love needs more!! It is hard for me. But it is the true LOVE.

I encourage you to practice this LOVE. It is hard, but with GOD's strength and help, nothing is impossible. LOVE without easily angered, LOVE without keeping the records of wrong, LOVE without envy, LOVE with lot of TRUST!!!

eyelashes

~Story time~
At a sandy day, eyes and hand had a conversation.
hand was blocking some sands flying into the eyes.
Eyes: thanks hand, if without you, i think i will be filled with sands. it will hurt me alot and i may even get infected. thanks so much.
Hand: You're welcome!! But i think you should say thanks to eyelashes, because they are the one who protect you 24/7. They are the one who trap most of the sand and dust. They are the one protect you, so that you can see the beautiful view of this world.

In our life, we always forget people that close to us the most. We are just like the eyes, we can see everything except the eyelashes. We saw the green and tall mountain, we saw the beautiful calm sea, we saw the pretty girl and guy on the other side of the river, but we couldn't see the long and beautiful eyelashes right in front of your eyes.

I have to say that, I always take my family for granted. I know that they will be there no matter how, so i will just ignore them. Put my friends, the things that i like in front of them.

When was the last time you talk to them? When was the last time you say I LOVE YOU to your parent? When was the last time you turn to them and share your sadness and happiness? When was the last time you think of them?

It is because they are always here, you will focus on the things that you have to chase after, the things that you haven't gotten in your hands. Just now i was reading bible, Solomon builds the temple for GOD. Inside it said Solomon employed people to build the temple, but he set the rules that everyone work for 1 month then 2 months rest, so that they can enjoy the time with their family.

We always focus on our work and forget our family, the always support. I think it is a time for us to show love to them.

I will txt my mum n say i love you.

This is my challenge to you. Just go n txt your parent a "I Love You" without a request or a reason. Have a look of your eyelashes!!

focus~~

sometime have you ever felt that you got distracted by something while you actually wanna do another thing?

I have that all the time. But recently, this feeling strutted me a lot. I have been trying to do something, but then because i kept focusing on the by-product, and totally forgotten and ignored about the main thing, the real big thing.

E.G. you wanna study for your exam, so you were thinking it would be good if you have a nice and tidy desk. Therefore, you spent an hour on tidying the table, and then another hour, then another hour and at the end, you spent the whole day on tidying the table, and didn't study for the exam at all.

I am not saying we shouldn't tidy our table to improve the efficiency, but don't forget the main purpose of tidying the table. It is to study for the exam.

Sometime we just spend too much time on the details and minor thing. And we will forget about the main, big deal.

It is very important for you to remember that the goal and aim all the time. We should remind ourselves about the main purpose. To see whether the action that you are doing is it beneficial to the main purpose. To see whether the action is it necessary.

For instance, we can tidy the table for exam. For sure it is better for us to study. BUT, is it necessary to spend the whole day on it? or it can be done by 1 or 2 hours??

In our life, we may have a mission, have a calling, have a job to do. But because of the minor things, because of the small little thing, we got distracted.

For me, my job is to build a generation, for me, my job is to invest in people's life, no matter is teen, old people, or kids(lol..i prefer to invest on kids). anyway, that's not the point. BUT my main goal in life is to grow in GOD, to study his words, to be the salt. If I don't read his words, how am I gonna know/do what pleased him??

Sometime, we will forget about studying his words but we go fellowship, we bond with the people. I am not saying shouldn't go out with friends. But what I am saying here is that shouldn't affect you to read HIS words, that shouldn't affect you to grow in HIM.

Don't Let The Small Little Things Distract You. Focus On The Big Deal In Your Life.
