N.B.S.B..What does it mean…?
When I was in HS up to my Sophomore in College, I used to be an NBSB- No Boyfriend Since Birth. I was proud of it. Unlike others who had countless relationships. But just like any teenager I have hormones. I fell in love- what I thought was love, then lost all the things I kept for many years. I regretted it ever since…
But God took my regrets away. God has a purpose for everything.
Romans 8: 28
“And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (NIV)”
W/o the pain I experienced in the past, I would not have left my hometown to run away from my Giants, I would not have ended where I am right now. I love it how God could do such an amazing thing..He’s calling is where I am right now.
Now at work, I’m always teased why I don’t have a boyfriend or have any dates other than my sisters, my spiritual mother and my kloscel/opencel. But I don’t regret it. I’m doing all of this out of LOVE.
“Do everything in love.”
-1 Corinthians 16:14
Now I know what love really means. Not just the sentimental gush:
Philippians 1: “9-11So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well. Learn to love appropriately. You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush. Live a lover’s life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of: bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of God.”
And to love is lay down your own life for your friends. Just like Jesus Christ. The Greatest Love story.
I know now, I’ll wait for him. He’ll come..For now I’ll be an NBSB- No Boyfriend Since Breakup!!!
