給神所愛的你,
既然我們從來不慶祝情人節,我就在此祝我們每一天都快樂。在這裡和你從溫我在我們婚禮場刊中的分享。
神所愛的我
God, the best maker of all marriages, combine your hearts in one. –William Shakespeare
I used to think that God gave “preferential treatment” to Perkins by telling me 3 times that he was His beloved at times most unexpected. He even told me so through my Indian colleague. At one point, I asked God with envy, “ Why don’t you call me your beloved in the same manner you gently called Perkins?” He paused, smiled and winked, “Child, don’t you know how much I love you by giving you my beloved? Don’t you realize how much Perkins loves you with his whole hearted support and acceptance of you for the way you simply are?” I paused, smiled and winked with surprise and joy for the gift of love from God and Perkins.
God loves us for the way we simply are. There’s nothing we can do to make Him love us less; nothing we can do to make Him love us more. God is just fond of His creations. He is also delighted in joining two hearts in one.
And nothing can separate us from God’s love in Christ. “…Neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities not powers, not things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”(Romans 8:38-39)
