I was made to love you

Relationships in high school are rough a lot of the time because you never know what you're getting into a lot of the time. Many of them don't work out and many do but we can't be the ones to decide that! That's God's decision! I know how hard it is to put it in God's hands because you want something to work out so bad that what you think becomes what you think God wants you to do. I love the speaker Justin Lookadoo for a couple of reasons. He's not afraid to tell you the truth and won't sugar-coat his words to tell you. He's a Godly man fo sho. He wrote an amazing book called Dateable thatI DEFINITELY suggest to all of my readers, even if there is only a handful. You're awesome for reading this. But God knows the bigger picture, even if He's not telling it like you want it. Here's the toughest part about the Big Man's plan: you're not suppose to worry. I am the captain of worrying (and those of you who know me will attest to that!). In the Gospel of Matthew is says this: "Therefore, do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble." It's so easy to worry about earthly relationships that you forget about the most important one: God's. Many of us know 1 Corinthians 13 very well. It says love never fails and can do no wrong. Couples read this and think "What's wrong with us?" Well, kiddos, it's not earthly love that Paul writes about. It's GOD'S love. His love is the perfect love and that love can only exist on earth through him (why do you think marriage is so sacred? God designed it! Duh!" I know that love is confusing, but God will show you what it really means. Turn to him and you'll see it!
