Breakups are hard. No doubt about it. But as time passes--and with a lot of prayer and telling yourself the truth (like "I am worth being loved well.") things begin to change.
For me, I gound a new perspective on God’s unconditional love. His love is brimming with kindness, compassion and acceptance. It readily forgives and restores. Knowing that, and experiencing that enables you to better love
both yourself and others.
“Love one another deeply, from the heart” (1 Peter 1:22 ). Live a life of love with generous, open hands not tightly-closed
fists. Giving, not hoarding. Love bravely. Love courageously.
God’s
commandments to love one another are not reserved for just a special man in
your life. No matter what your marital status, you can share the love you have
with everyone, especially those in need.
Hope on. You may have lost a love
relationship, but do not lose heart. God is building in you perseverance,
character and hope (Romans 5:3-5). God is the author of love, and marriage was
his idea in the first place. Trust that if God provides in this
area, He will give the person who is best suited for you.
My friend Bobby once gave me a good piece of
advice, “You know what kind of guy you want, God knows what kind of guy you
need.”
To me, it is a mystery and a miracle how two
people ever get together and stay together. Thankfully, the God we serve is
really good at mysteries and miracles. And He excels at new beginnings. Here’s to new hope…and new
beginnings!
The best days are ahead.
