I went through a very difficult time in my life and it was very hard for me to think that I would ever be able to love someone again. I thought what happened to me had broken me. I thought I was no longer capable of caring for someone. At camp that summer my friend shared Song of Songs 8:7 with me, "Many waters cannot quench love, rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned."
Waters cannot quench love. Love perseveres. Rivers cannot wash it away. Love is not just gonna get pushed away because something happened to you. Love is endless and that is so cool.
This picture is of me and my boyfriend Ethan. God gave me this boy in the midst of a season of hurting. God gave me Ethan to show me that I could love again and that His plan for me was so much greater than my own. Ethan has shown me what it looks like to love unconditionally and how to have God at the center of your relationships.
Love never fails. Love cannot be destroyed.
