God's unconditioned love!

Today was a long day for me. Or rather starting from March, my classes' frequency is increasing. From a 2 day week, a total of 9 hours classes to 3 day week, ranging from 12-18 hours. Sweat! -_-" Really tiring but then I know I had to put in the extra effort. I cannot afford to lose pace. Need to persevere on. 1 and half more years and I'll graduate. Must not give up. The Lord is my strength!

Today I had a conversation with my friend and it brings us to God's unconditioned love. Sometimes when we do something for someone whether it be friends, love ones or others, we do it out of pure love. And many times we end up being hurt or not appreciated by the opposite party. The feeling is no good and may end up becoming an emotional wound. Well I guess it is alright to feel this way since God gave us emotions. But we should not hold grudge or justify our sorrowness. We should instead come back to God because His love for us is unconditioned and will never change even though we will. And His love will heal our emotional wound.
Why shouldn't we hold any grudges over what the other party has done to us? Because Jesus didn't. His love is the perfect love and the ultimate love. His love is the example of love we should model after. He loves us so much that He died for us on the cross even though He knew that many will still reject and not show any appreciation for what He had done on the cross. Likewise, we should still love others even though there's the chance of not receiving anything back. But it is ok becoz that is what love is all about.
To avoid disappointment, always root your love in God. And only when God's love is in us, can we be strong and be able to love others unconditionally. So go forth to love one another so that people will know that we are Your disciples. Amen!
