LOVE---- LOVE---- LOVE
So much about love, I'm in love and I'm always in love with my valentine. I'm looking forward on that Heart's Day since it's gonna be a special day for lover's and sweet hearts.
But my post right now is not about kilig moments,but somehow will remind us the importance of every relationship.. boy-girl relationship, marriage, friendship or anything under relationship.
In this post,I want you to know that:
Relationships are worth restoring
and to remember...
"Do everything possible on your part to live in peace with everybody."
-Romans 12.18
-Romans 12.18
Can you remember someone that you might have argued for past days or maybe for several years? Someone you've share your love or friendship?
Have you hurt someone, maybe not your intention or just intentionally?
If your in a relationship and seems things are not really in place because of an unsettled issue?
In this darkest hour of our life, God reminds us of simple things that we humans tend to forget when a certain relationship is being tested. No relationship is perfect. It might be friendship, work relationship or marriage.
Whether which category of relationship that you're struggling right now,I hope this will give us ideas on how to make it up

If you have read Purpose Driven Life, you'll surely remember this chapter..
Day 20: Restoring a Broken Relationship
Relationships are important. Since it takes so long to build relationships, we are told to make sure we work at repairing them if they get broken. God knows that if we get in an argument, it is hard to make peace with the person, but we are supposed to work at it. We also need to work at not getting into arguments in the first place.
Pray first. When we talk to others about broken relationships, we tend to gossip. When we talk to God and ask his help, we work toward fixing the relationship.
Go first. It doesn't matter if you did it or they did it to you, we need to be the first one working toward getting it made right.
Think about them. Try to see it from their point of view. Arguments take two people, and you may both be right and wrong about some things.

| " I was wrong too" |
Admit you did it too. Don't wait to see what they do, if you were in the wrong, even a little, admit what you did wrong.
Go after the problem. Don't bring up the past. Don't bring up new things. Don't insult the person. Just try to fix the real problem that got you here.
Cooperate. Don't try to fix unimportant things. Worry about the big stuff, and just try to get along when you don't see eye to eye.
Try to get back together, not get even. Marriages, friendships, even churches tend to split over little things. Work on living in peace, not trying to find out where someone is wrong and making that an issue. If they are wrong, try to work on that peaceably. Don't say, "I told you so" if they ever learn that they are wrong.
This doesn't apply only for couples but also to friendship. Reading this post,can you remember someone that you might not be in good term but once shared a relationship { not only intimate but also phalli love-friendship love}. Maybe it's time to restore that relationship. Heart's day is not about showing love but also may serve as a perfect time to restore and bring back relationship that are worth restoring..
While God desires that we recognize our anger and bitterness toward others, harboring those feelings and refusing to work toward the restoration of broken relationships is contrary to His will. We need to prayerfully confront and confess inner feelings of anger, and then surrender them to the loving healing of our heavenly Father.
I would always want to end every post with a bible verse.. a verse that will remind us how GOD restored his relationship to us his children and also a perfect description of his love to us....
