Let's talk about "Feelings"

I’ve been talking about “feelings” lately because I'm really an emotional wreck this past few days, *note: I'm always depressed whenever I have my monthly visitor hihihi*  

I've been writing about my woe since Saturday night but I’m happy that I let it all out and fixed my undesirable feelings with my love today. Hahaha. 

Suddenly after talking it out, God reminded me of something, and that is.. not to based your love on feelings.

 Feelings can make you fly on cloud 9 or break you into pieces. The best thing about feelings is when we experience it with the ones we love like a sweet icing on a cake. However, we should not depend our love merely on feelings because feelings are liars and certainly fleeting. Feelings change and are not easily controlled. Today we may feel all the sort of kiligness that we can feel with the other person but we’ll never know, tomorrow it might suddenly vanish like a mist.

Love is more than that. It is more than just a feeling. It’s a decision.

It’s a decision to be open and to share when you don’t feel like it. An honest communication to settle things. However, it’s not only talking but it also requires listening.

It’s a decision to stay with the person you love through good times and never leave his/her side even through the toughest times of your relationship.

If you’re on a rocky road with your partner and you don’t feel like doing good to him/her, love will incline you to choose to do it anyway.

It’s a decision when you don’t think your partner deserves your love.

It’s a daily decision to love your partner every single day. 

Just always remember what the Bible tells us about the description of love and may this serve as a guide for us on how to love our partners.

1 Corinthians 13:4-8 NIV

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 

8 Love never fails.
