If we love each other, why wait until marriage?

If you truly love each other, you will wait until marriage! Because you want to preserve one another in purity for the day when you can say without reservation to each other; I am yours and your mine. Without reservation, because you have pledged to each other, before God’s church and in sight of men that you accept full responsibility for one another. That moment is called marriage. To insist on union before that moment is to ask for the full privilege without accepting the total responsibility. This is sinful, selfish and unloving.

True love will wait because in God’s design, sexual union is the culmination (not the initiation) of true love, the supreme act of mutual self giving. It is the out ward, physical expression of a deeper spiritual union between two persons “and the two shall become one”.

What is Love?

LOVE is a mutual feeling of care, affection, respect and longing for somebody. It does not limit itself to a life time partner. Love can be directed to GOD, country, fellow men, partner and one self. If we aim true love for God and our neighbor, we seed the queen of all virtues. If we direct a working love to our country and fellow men, we grow the nationalism of all heroes. Love for others is a heritage of fidelity while love for one self is valuing the life given to us.

When we journey for love, we journey with a light baggage and sow love to others whom we encounter on the paths of that journey, for love will never be a true love when it is not manifested. Love does not frown nor ask in return, instead it smiles.

Love for a partner is not limited to chaining them tight to our waists or suffocating them with our selfish wishes of pleasure, faithfulness, honesty, respect, care and selflessness will qualify the love that we have for our partners. This journey for love will be truly admirable if we witness both the light and dark faces of life.

Journey for love should not be made in dark alleys, unlighted rooms and deserted places. It should be manifested openly so that your family and society can witness your love and remind you of your faithfulness for one another in that commitment.

Journey for love is not merely about sex. It is about sacrifice and selflessness. We can share love to our partners not only through sexual intercourse, but through sharing them our time, attention, care and concern.

FRIENDSHIP

FRIENDSHIP can be defined in many ways. It maybe a simple word, but a lot can be told. Through the history of mankind, we have made a lot of enemies in countless wars and battles, but there were friends who always stood beside us.

FRIENDSHIP is a bond of love that we form with a comrade in a very special way. This will tie us through eternity. Journeys through life can never be lovely unless we find worthy friends along the way. Friends who will guide us through the path, light us up of their wisdom, cheer us when we are sad, help us stand out when we are down, and share all the happiness that burst with in our hearts.

It’s a true joy to meet a selfless friend who will give up anything and everything for a friend. When you find that friend never let him go! Love, cherish and keep all his memories deep inside your heart because when you lose your friend it’s very hard to replace him.

Our friend is our other half. We will never be complete as a person with out a friend beside us through thick and thin. Our bodies are mortal and fragile, but our friendship is a spiritual bond that must not be tarnished. We shall exert our full efforts to prevent our friendship from failing.
