God feels the pain too if we stray

~Love is not a necessity, but it is life’s greatest gift and luxury.~

When God first created humans, he did it so that he can have a relationship with us. So that we may share and enjoy the fellowship among all the wonderful things he created in this planet with our Heavenly Father. Among all other things God created, He loved us the most. For we are made according to His image and likeness. Although we may be insignificant as compared to his other magnificent creations like the mountains and the scenic sea, He loved us much more than anything else. God even gave us dominion over birds and fishes, and any other living creatures of this world.

~Love does not expect anything but love in return.
Love knows when to put pride to the side,
Because the greatest thing one can be proud of
Is a love that is shared.
~

Instead of Loving our Father in return, what do we do?

We turn our backs against Him... we ignored His instructions and commandments... we rather go do our own things rather than spending time with our Heavenly Father... we create false idols to worship instead of prasing and thanking Him for all that He's done... we go out to endlessly trying to earn our first million than have a relationship with our Creator... we rather ignore Him as if God is non-existant...

~Love is or should be unconditional.
Love is giving and selfless.
~

Despite all that... one fact remains...

He still Loves us... and hopes that we will one day turn back to reunite with Him...

~Love is undying devotion.
Love is not resentful and does not rejoice in wrong, but celebrates the right.
~

Haha... the funny thing is... how sometimes when we run so far away from God, although God is hurt, but yet, he still chooses to love us and still speaks to us through unique ways. Our Father never gives up, that we would one day run back to him, saying: 'I love you too daddy'

Was reading Phyllis' book, The Purpose Driven Life in church today, and here's a few excerpt:

"God intentionally allows you to go through painful experiences to equip for for ministry to others"

"The very experiences that you have resented or regretted most in life - the onesyou've wanted to hide and forget - are the experiences God wants to use help others"

It is also amazing how God uses painful events to help me realise how much God loves me and the hurt, the heartache when we choose to disobey God.

Well basically, about several hours ago, one of my dearest friend, the one who i care and love, shared with me something over the phone. She apperently did something which i would never thought she would do. I was shocked... surprised... somewhat hurt too...

I dunno, but somehow i also felt deceived... my heart aches too...

But then i know... deep down I do not blame her... i do not control her... she has the every right to make her decisions, and i respect that.

I still cherish her...

~Love endures all, hopes all, bears all.
Love is believing, sharing, dreaming.
~

And as i was thinking and reflecting... it occured to me, Hey, God created us... He loves us... And He has given us a freedom of choice to do whatever we want... yet at times we choose to disobey our Father, and when we do, our Father will feel hurt. And comeon, honestly, how many donkey times have we strayed away from God, even us christians, sometimes we also hurt God by not doing QT, or disobeying Him at other areas... Have we realized just how much hurt we give to God each time we draw far from Him.

I was hurt just now, indirectly by someone who I love and treasure, and that feeling Sucks. I come to hink how much i have hurt God, and how much of that Sucky feeling my God felt... it urks me...

After feeling the pain... I came to realise, just how much heartache can one give to God if one chose to hurt Him.

God still loves us no matter what we have done, His doors are always open to welcome us back to His arms again.

~Love is Honesty.
Love is friendship, companionship, and more.
~

To my friends: Dun disappoint God... it really hurts the Father to see His children disobeying him... and the feeling of being hurt sucks.

~Love is completion.
Forgiving.
Understanding and inspiring.
~

Well... although i cant really comprehend God's love for us fully, i pray someday i would... i mean, God is someone whom i know who still Loves those who hates and/or ignores Him, especially those unbelievers. Its damn hard for us humans to do that.

~For the unperfected will pass upon
The coming of that which is perfect,
And Perfect love never ends.
~
