Love ALWAYS Perseveres...

We don't even talk anymore,
We don't even know what we argue about,
Don't even say I love you no more,
Cos Saying how we feel is no longer allowed...

Three nights ago, God kept on putting X into my heart. I don't know how to describe it but it's happened so many times in my life now that I just can't doubt that there is a God who always manage to use ppl to intervene at the right time. I always get these names in my heart and I start to think about them and then the next few days, bingo, they pop back in my life some how..

Anyhow, so last night finally, X was online. So we started to msn. I could sense so strongly in my spirit that something was wrong. So I asked 'How are you going?'. X was reluctant to talk at first but finally wrote down everything that was in the heart..

Basically, things aren't going well with their relationship. They are both planning to walk down the aisle real soon. However, a major disagreement happened on the weekend that made both of have doubts about their relationship, whether they are actually made for each other. So they sought pre-marriage counselling from their pastor. They did a personality test. Both came out as opposites. However, the pastor did mention that that's a good fit. He used the analogy of:

'One person likes to open a window, the other likes to shut it'. Great I thought. Now how on earth is that supposed to be a complement?
Finally X told me, the Pastor continued to say 'So when one person opens it at night, goes to sleep and forgets to close it, the other would automatically shut it'.
Ah, that makes a lot of sense!

But X was really distraught saying 'but what if I want to open the window the whole night?'.
The argument was so huge that they were so close to calling everything off and X was all ready to jet set on a plane and leave Australia on Saturday. I really felt for X.. No wonder, something was up in my spirit too that day! How bizarre!

Anyways, I told X to remember to re-dedicate their r/ship in God's hand. To work things through and to remember that sometimes, one party just have to give in cos you will never get along ALL the time! Relationship is all about compromising. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose but most of the time, it shouldn't be about winning or losing but rather an act of love that keeps the relationship going no matter how wrong the other party may be. After all, Love perserveres right? You don't just give up when a wave has suddenly crashed into your relationship and especially, you DO NOT just give up when one party wants out (because their emotions are running high and they say things they don't mean). The other party need to be the better half and give in at a time where things are very heated up....

We chatted for about 2hrs until it was nearly midnight. X was feeling a bit better but did mention the fact it's like a ball has just hit the glass of the window and the window of the house is still broken...

I pray that God will intervene their relationship and allow His Agape Love to envelop their hurt and broken wound..

Let's Don't wait till the water runs dry,

We might watch our whole lives past us by...

Love always protects, always trusts,always hopes, always perseveres.
