haha the title pretty much speaks for itself.. Awkward Love
This is an exerpt that has taught me how to love, the different aspects of love, and ULTIMATE reason that we can actually do such a thing as TO LOVE =)
It took me at least a week or so to fully understand what it meant.. and at least 1 year to work on it and actually see results.. These are one of the many things that have impacted and changed me to be the MICHI you see, hear, and know now!! kekekeke =)
LOVE YOU everybody!
God speaks yet AGAIN, through John & Stasi Eldredge :
- Honest communication in love is the only way to live and grow in friendships. There are ebbs and flows. There may be real hurt and disappointment.
- But with the grace of God firmly holding us, it is possible to nurture and sustain deep friendships.
- We are designed to live in relationship and share in the lives of other women. We need one another. God knows that. We have only to ask and surrender, to wait, to hope, and, in faith, to love. We must also repent.
- For a woman to enjoy relationship, she must repent of her need to control and her insistence that people fill her.
- Fallen Eve demands that people “come through” for her.
- Redeemed Eve is being met in the depths of her soul by Christ and is free to offer to others, free to desire, and willing to be disappointed.
- Fallen Eve has been wounded by others and withdraws in order to protect herself from further harm.
- Redeemed Eve knows that she has something of value to offer; that she is made for relationship. Therefore, being safe and secure in her relationship with her Lord, she can risk being vulnerable with others and offer her true self.
- To love at all is to be vulnerable. Love anything, and your heart will certainly be wrung and possibly broken.
- If you want to make sure of keeping it intact, you must give your heart to no one, not even to an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries; avoid all entanglements; lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness.
- But in that casket—safe, dark, motionless, airless—it will change. It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable . . . The only place outside Heaven where you can be perfectly safe from all the dangers . . . of love is Hell. (C. S. Lewis, The Four Loves)
