what can i do to make you love me...

this is a line in a famous song by the Corrs from UK... a thought crossed my mind while hearing this song...
if we will just have the power to know what our love interest really wants from us in exchange of his/her precious love...i think all will be happy and well. but we are living in this fallen world where perfection is far from reality.
anyway, we don't have to ask the question "what can i do to make you love me...?" to God. you know what, i have come across this verse found in Romans 5:8 that says: "But God has shown us how much he loves us -- it was while we were still sinners that Christ died for us!" what a relief! it was Jesus who first loved us no matter who we are or what we have done!

in this time of the year, statistics shows that there is higher rate of suicide incidents than other times of the year...the common reason is depression. in this season of love, most people don't feel loved. here's the good news...God loves you so much that He is willing to give His One and Only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for you and me! (John 3:16) All we have to do is put our faith on Him alone. It is by faith that we have been saved (Ephesians 2:8-9).

Christmas is just around the corner. more than anything else, spread love, joy...and most especially the love of God!

advance Happy Holidays everyone!
