Longing for love

Why is it that we long for love so badly? What is so special about love?
As a part of the female species I know that girls long for love, especially from boys. They make you feel special, they make you bubble in your stomach, they are the best friends you can have. But what kind of love are we experiencing? Is it a temporary or an eternal love?

I know that I can get caught up in the niceness of liking or loving someone but when trial and tribulations occur will you still love him/her. Would you still love him/her if that person betrayed you? Would you still love him if he cheated? if she cheated?

That's the kind of love that we don't really understand. We love...until something bad or unpleasant happens. But I was introduced to an eternal love. Imagine someone that loves you FOREVER, no matter what. This person will treat you special, will make you stomach tingle, will kiss your face, will hold your hand, will hug you tenderly, even when you cheat on this person, even if you leave this person. This person would die for you.

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 

Nothing can separate us from God's love. 



I experienced God's love and nothing compares to it. Its a love that lifts you up higher, its a love that fills your heart and makes it overflow. 
I pray that you may experience this type of love, and may reflect it in your own relationships with others. Love, like Christ did.
