faith - hope - love
Last weekend, it has come to me and my family's attention that a friend of mine, who is currently 19 years old is now heavy with child.
Well, I'm suposed to be jaded on these things but still when it's happening to someone close to me or to my family, things feel really weird. When I say weird, not only do I say I feel bad about the situation but also because my parents are placed on the "ALARM" mode. You know, the "DAPAT MAGING MAINGAT" thing.... para silang nagiging paranoid. Well, there's suffiecient reason for the paranoia since they have two pretty daughters (that's me and my sis *evilgrin*) . I know they don't want the spotlight on them if ever that happens to me or my sis. Oh well, neither do I.
One thing that's on my mind right now... If that happened to her, it was because she failed to do or failed not to do something (safety precautions?!) and not because she loved.
With faith I shall continue to hope that one day I shall be united before the Lord with my One True Love...

1 Corinthians 13
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love. |
