“You still don’t have a boyfriend?! Rajinie whatever happened in the past is now over, it’s time to move on, find romance, don’t give up on it just because some guy left your heart broken…
I heard this from a friend with whom I made contact after sometime, and what she said made me think.
Romance is beautiful and precious, but only when it flows from a relationship with the author of romance – Jesus. One could end up with a good love story by working according to the formula that the world has made up for romance; flirting, dating, dressing seductively to attract men and manipulating them with your words and actions….. But it always ends with dissatisfaction, pain and heartbreak- for how can love survive without the God Of love being the centre piece?
But on the other hand, you will get His best for you, if you surrender all your dreams to Him and reside in Him with a heart content and full of adoration and love for Him.
His kind of romance is breathtakingly beautiful and has no heartbreak – for how can it be when He is the God of love?
The shallow, trivial worldly wisdom will only hinder and mar the beauty of a God scripted love story. You don’t have to go around searching for romance (like my friend suggested), it’s already given to you – it was given to you on the day when He stretched His arms on the cross and died for you…
So, I don’t have a boyfriend, not because my heart is broken or sore, but because the lover of my soul has already claimed it and has healed the scars and made it new – so that I can be His bride, pure and set apart for Him!
Isn’t that romance? In fact isn’t that the best love story ever?
