True Romance ♥

True Romance ♥

know that:

An earthly romance is meant to be an outflow of our Heavenly romance with Christ. A human love story was designed to be a picture of the stunning romance between Christ and His Bride. The only way this can happen is for both individuals 
to be completely consumed with Jesus Christ; to be ruled and operated not by selfish motives, but by His divine Spirit alone. 

-Leslie Ludy

"In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus."

(Philippians 2:5 NIV)

and say that:

"I can love you but God can love you deeper. I can be your friend but God can be your best friend. I can hug you but God can envelope you. You can cry to me but God can dry your tears. I can hold your hands but God can carry you. I may not be there always but God is always with you."

"I pray that you will know the love of Christ. His love goes beyond anything we can understand. I pray that you will be filled with God Himself." 

(Ephesians 3:19 NLV)

My prayer for this season of my life

My prayer for this season of my life

Lord, I struggle not knowing what your plans are for me. I have a hard time surrendering what I want to control. I'm eager to do what only You can do. So many times I act on impulse and out of my unwillingness to wait I end up dishonoring you. Help me be self controlled, help me give You authority over my life, help me know when to back off and let You work. Amen.
