God love never gives up!

 Christ doesn’t give up, no matter the price

Something I learned the other day was Christ like love doesn’t give up no matter the price. It sees the good in a person. It looks for the good in a person no matter how hard it might be to do so. After all Don’t we all have the desire to be understood, loved, and appreciated for all that we do?

Many times all we see is what we are doing and going through. How many times do we look outside of ourselves to truly think about others? When we get outside of ourselves we find it easy to love others. Loving others is about them and not you.

When we are in relationships with another it should be about them and not us. Why do you think being in a healthy relationship is so hard? My mom the other day taught me that how we know that something is important and worthwhile is if it’s hard.

As I have been in a new, wonderful, and healthy relationship I’m learning that I am the only one who can change. I have to be willing to allow myself to become more understanding, more loving, more compassionate, more willing to look outside of myself.

What I have gained is everything! I have gained a relationship where I’m not too much. I’m enough as I am. I’m getting closer to God by being with Jerome. I’m loved and he's always doing better in learning how I need to be loved. He asks questions to understand why I feel what I do. He’s teaching me to think about others and less about myself. To be honest with my feelings, to think about what I want in life, to think more positive than I usually do.

Is the relationship hard? Yes it is, but I am learning how to be more Christ like in all areas of my life. God never gives up on us. He’s always forgiving no matter how hard we fall so long as we repent and do better. I’m so grateful for the lessons that I have been learning from being in this relationship and hopefully I’m becoming more Christ like and loving from where I am in life.

If we as society would learn how to always be doing better, be more forgiving and accepting, be more loving we would have less broken families and marriages. After all we all fail at times. No body is perfect and it's by work and understanding that we can be doing better.
