I would do almost anything to put off homework...
The bachelor, Jake, lives in the same community my grandmother does. In my opinion, the show is a bunch of bull and the worlds view at love sucks. Media has skewed love into being something that is perfect. An emotion that will never go through ups and downs. The only love that is perfect is God's love. That is the only perfection we will ever feel, yet we seem to always doubt Him. As humans, if we can doubt our creator, Father, lover, and friend...then what makes us think that another human is perfect and the love they supply is perfect? People will let you down. They will make mistakes. BUT they will only hurt you if you believe they are not capable of hurting you. If you put them on a pedestal, then they will break your heart, because they have to come down eventually.May the Lord direct your hearts into God's love and Christ's perseverance. -2 Thessalonians 3:5
Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands. -Deuteronomy 7:9
Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever. -1 Chronicles 16:34
All my intimate friends detest me; those I love have turned against me. -Job 19:19
((people will let you down, turn to the Lord))
I could seriously go on a very long time quoting scripture about God's amazing love. But I believe this sermon does it a lot better than I can. If you have time listen to God's word.

((scroll down to 10/25/09 which is about love in marriage OR 2/28/10 which is about feeling accepted))
