When Love Comes Along

In February I wrote a blog about being Ready for Love.

I was singing the song by India Aire of the same title on my youtube video.

I had not met anyone.

As a matter of fact it been awhile since I had been on a date.

I've gone out to dinner or drinks with people I already knew but no one new.

So I didn't consider them to be a date.

Saying your ready for love and being ready for love are two different things.

You have to get back out there after a breakup and start dating again.

Meeting new people is stressful.

You never know who you are going to meet.

The fun and unknown is when love comes along.

Just enjoying life is when love comes along.

I've asked myself a when love comes along:

Can start all over again???

Can you love with an open heart???

My answer would be YES!

Until you are faced with the opportunity you don't know what you will really do.

I was told recently by a new friend that I do have trust issues.

I after careful thought I hate to admit it but I do.

I want to thank my friend for pointing that out to me.

It's easy to say that you don't have trust issues.

I didn't think that I did.

Having your heart secure with God is where all this begins.

Knowing that His love for you is enough even if you never have your dream relationship.

Yet when you have had a bad experience with love it's not easy for you to trust someone with your heart.

It's easy to say that you will give someone a chance.

My parents have said that I was waiting on Jesus.

I realize that in order to have a relationship I have to give someone a chance.

In reality you don't know when love will come along.

Today I was thinking about when love comes along what can happen:

When love comes along do you embrace it???

When love comes along do you compare it to your past???

When love comes along do you self sabotage it because you're afraid of being hurt???

When love comes along do you play games???

When love comes along do you lie???

When love comes along will you be honest with yourself about how you feel???

When love comes along do you shy away from it???

If you look deep within yourself and you are honest the answer is hidden away.

You're probably afraid to get your feelings hurt.

You're unsure who you can trust.

You may lack faith to believe that love is really possible.

One thing is for sure our past shapes who we are.

But we don't have to let our past trap us from having a future.

Your mind can play some serious games with you.

Each person is different.

You have to get to know someone.

You must be willing not to compare people or relationships.

The only thing that I can do when meeting someone new is take it one day at a time.

When love comes along I hope I will know what to do.

I have self sabotage friendships in the past that may have been the relationship that was right for me.

Music moves me when I hear lyrics that relate to things that I'm experiencing or want to write about.

Source Azlyrics – Intro "Loving" Testimony 1: Life & Relationship

"Oh God grant me the serenity to accept the things that I cannot change
The courage to change the things that I can
The wisdom to know the difference
Oh ooh and God give me the courage to love with an open heart,
An open heart, an open heart I wanna love with an open heart
Oh ooh oh with an open heart "  India Aire

I chose this song with praying for guidance when loves comes along.

When love comes along what will you do???
