Once upon a time there was a little girl and all she dreamed about was growing up and finding her one true love.....but as she got to be older she realized that Prince Charming wasn't as charming as she was led to believe...and the fairy tales came crashing down. With no one to believe in but herself she spiraled ...all she wanted was the perfect love story, the kind that the love songs like Taylor Swift sings about in Its a Love Story talk about...Hmmm.. Sound familiar to you ladies out there? Guys..how bout you...the princess in your life not as sweet as Snow White? Love not going where you thought it would? Guess what...love is a verb, its an action not a feeling. You have to give it to get it back, and just like the infomercials say..But wait! There's more...tell us about it! We all have the love of our father. Now, I am not just talking about your Earthly father, I am talking about our Heavenly Father. He loved us so much that he sent His son down here...ya I know you know that already right? But I heard an interesting thing on Klove yesterday...and it really hit home for me..so let me share.. A Father is out in the yard and he is letting his son climb the trees. He tells his son, never ever climb the tree's without me here because you could fall and hurt yourself. Of course what happened? The son was climbing the tree when his father was inside and fell and hurt himself. His father hearing the screams coming from outside did what?....well lets think about that a minute...did he say, oh no, not going out there...i told him not to do that! On top of that his room isnt clean! he didnt eat his vegetables! He didnt feed the dog! No, the father ran out the door and took care of his child because he loves him. So, why do we think that God wont respond to us if we cry out in pain and agony? We are His children..and even though we screw up, when we hurt...He WANTS us to turn toward Him. He uses our adversity to bring us closer to Him. He WANTS to have a relationship with us....amazing...simply amazing! So once upon a time there was a girl, and she fell in love... Her Father God will always be there, He will never let her down..He is faithful and awesome and to beautiful beyond description. It truly is the greatest love story known to man. We just have to say yes and it can be OUR love story... So how about it? Are you ready to have the greatest love of your life? Sharyl
