What is it like to fall in love?

SO,  ...
What is it like to fall in love?

Is it instant in a moment of bliss? Or is it like a marshmallow, only perfected with patience?

What is it like to fall in love?

Is it all I have dreamed for?  Or is it only a child's fantasy?

What is it like to fall in love?
Does love blow past me continuously? or, is it only slow in arriving, softly on the wind?

What is it like to fall in love?
Is it only like the cheap glimpses found in romance novels or in a chic flic?
Is it ever true, faithful to comittment, empty of low compromises?

What is it like to fall in love?
A cup of coffee, jolting you with energy--yet quickly needing its next fix? or A tablespoon of peanut butter, slowly eaten from a spoon and enjoyed and satisfied at its finish?

What is it like to fall in love?

Sometimes my heart grows so deep with longing for love.  Not just like a quick fix kind of love or anything. But for children to raise of my own, for someone to grow old with, for a God to pursue and a mission to adventure on with together.
I know that I am still not too old, and I know that God has heard my prayers, but there are times where it is difficult to be patient, to hold on to belief...it can become something that I doubt, whether or not I have heard my dear Father correctly.

I exhort you other girls, young and old, to hold on to your dreams.  Keep everything in your hearts true, keep your eyes on your faith.  He is able to hold you still, even when our hope grows dim.  "He is faithful even when we are faithless," Paul writes in the book of James, and I believe it. 


I'm glad that I have the truest and dearest love that ever matters.  With him I will spend eternal bliss and happiness, and in Him all my dreams come true.  I love Jesus so much.
