How Do You Recognize True Love?

how do you recognize true love

You’d know that a love is true

when that love is able to overcome fear.

Perfect love casts away all fears.

And indeed, there is no fear in love.

True love does not run away.

True love does not lose faith.

True love does not retreat

with the slightest discomfort.

True love endures.

True love heals.

True love overcomes all darkness

and all hopelessness.

You will never doubt true love when you see it.

You will just know.

You will BELIEVE.

When I Asked for a Rose – Looking Back

Happy Valentines Everyone!  🙂  Today, I would like to bring back one of my most loved articles titled “When I Asked for a Rose”. I hope you have a romantic day, enjoy reading:

When I Asked for a Rose

It was January 31, 2000, and Valentines Day seem so near. I was praying to God when I suddenly felt so sad. I felt so lonely. I knew that dreaded day would soon be coming when girls would soon be receiving flowers from their special someone, when they would all go about proudly carrying those flowers, certain of the sincere love of those that offered them. I haven’t got any lover though. So no flowers for me, no bouquet, not even a single red rose.

It was kinda embarassing, but I knew the Lord knew my heart and there was no point in hiding anything. I remained true to my feelings, and I asked God for something I’ve never asked before. I’ve asked Him to send me a rose, just one. I don’t know how it could possibly happen, but I prayed, like a daughter asking something from her dear father. I prayed for a single red rose. I prayed for a small expression of love, a small sign that I am loved, and that I am special as well.

It was a heartfelt prayer, though I never really thought much of it the day after. I guess it was enough for me that I uttered it, and that the Lord heard me. It was already upon God’s hands whether to grant the prayer of silly girls like me.  CLICK here to Continue
