Like and Love, so alike yet so different!

Like

I see the flower and I like it so much, so I plug it and have it!

Love

I see the flower and fell in love with it. Noted that the wind is strong and it is raining heavily, I build it a shelter to further protect it so it can grow heathily! 

Life ain't always beautiful, full with thorns.

As we allow ourselves to be immersed in the movie that goes through happiness, bitterness, madness etc within the time limit of two hours, somehow it is like the our life, in longer time limit.

As I recalled most of the movies that I watched, most of the time the happiness only occurred during the beginning & the ending part. When we are still infant and kids, there is no need to worry/ sad about something for long time. Argument between kids, scolded by parents, ... will mostly take short time to be forgotten and there we go, enjoying fun time again.

As we grow into adult, more things seem to heat and hit up on us. Feeling like life is lonely, tough and hard are no longer strange to many of the working adults. We still can allow tears to flow the unhappiness things away when we are teenagers. It totally sounds different when we are adults. Shredding tears can only provide comfort for a while and we still have to face the challenges within time limit. 

"Hang in there bro/sis, you can do it" is one of the encouragement words that we can provide to friends sometimes. When we are kids, what we want are mostly toy which we can share with each other. Growing into adults "require" us to have different types of "toy" (example: travelling, property, savings, time) which we can't share among each others. 

Please don't find this passage offensive/discouraging. It is just an "I" to share what I'm feeling now. I feel so vulnerable and many things can seem to be able to take my gut away. Am learning to grow stronger and allow God to heal me, teach & guide me so I will not always this lost. 

Back to You

In life,
life's hopeless, helpless.
What hath happen to this world.
Selfishness, pride took over,
ruling among us,
yelling us to work,
just for a paycheck.

In life,
God brought you and me Jesus.
Crucified on the Cross,
Why? Why?
When we are doing everything that He once hates,
wait, not once, still hate.

The unique of love,
not because we are good,
because want to save us from the worst judgement,
that no one can stand against it firmly.

Oh Lord,
You are the one we seek for.
You are the one we want to live for.
Let it not be only a word from our mouth,
may it be the vow that we want to make it now.
Dwell in us, use us, for we are weak,
You are strong.

We can't understand Your will, so Lord,
take our body, our soul.
Use us as You wish,
ignore our pain, let Your pain is the pain we feel,
break us for what break your heart, Lord.

We uphold this moment onto You, Lord,
teach us how to seek for You forever,
for Your love is the only hope in this world.
