True Love Story

Tabi was telling me a touching story the night i bunked over at her hostel.
I didn't know how it got there but i guess it was cos we were talking abt death tat seems so nearby...

She was saying there's this lady in her church who's husband passed away sometime ago and now her dad did so too. Was sad how sometimes events in one's life unfold.

Tabi told me that the lady read an excerpt from the bible that speaks so strongly of her love and how strong she has been from the true Love that she has found. It's so amazing how she did not crumble away...although i think she might have cried terribly when she's alone.
She read an excerpt from Romans 8:35-29

"Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
'For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered (Psalm 44:22)'

No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, angels nore demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord."

People in the church cried when they heard that, but she did not. She was the one who stood firm and strong
because of Love.

And so i pray for the one who lost his wife through childbirth. That the baby be blessed with the love that the mother has left.

And i pray for the man that seems so far away. That whatever it may mean, i shall be sad but not weakened in my prayers for him.

And like all others who had hurt me in some ways or so, i pray for them. That whatever it meant, i shall be sad but not weakened in my prayers for them.

And i pray for those whom i love so dearly. That whatever may come, i shall be tired, sad or hurt, but not weakened in my prayers for them.

And i pray for myself.That Prayers be not of only requests and wants but of the need to communicate and strengthen this relationship with/of Love.

Amen.
