We talked about the love of God for us—how He holds us when things are falling apart, how He is there when we feel alone, and how He carefully curates everything for our good. It is the kind of love that redeems us from our sin so we can be with Him. Truly, an unconditional love.

God has also given us the gift to love others and the gift of a partner.

The Adam–Eve principle teaches us this.

𝐆 𝐄 𝐍 𝐄 𝐒 𝐈 𝐒 𝟐 : 𝟐 𝟏 – 𝟐 𝟐
“𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐨𝐧 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐥𝐞𝐩𝐭; 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐨𝐧𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐫𝐢𝐛𝐬, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐜𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐞𝐝 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐟𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐢𝐧 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐜𝐞. 𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐫𝐢𝐛 𝐰𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐨𝐫𝐝 𝐆𝐨𝐝 𝐡𝐚𝐝 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞𝐧 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐇𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐚 𝐰𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐇𝐞 𝐛𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐧.”

✨ In this verse, we see that woman was intentionally and lovingly created by God—not as an afterthought, but as a precious gift and suitable partner for man. It reflects God’s beautiful design for companionship, unity, and Christ-centered love.

But as we wait, we must focus on being
𝗧 𝗛 𝗘 𝗥 𝗜 𝗚 𝗛 𝗧 𝗣 𝗘 𝗥 𝗦 𝗢 𝗡 rather than merely finding the right person — 𝒂 𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒐𝒏 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒊𝒔 𝒘𝒉𝒐𝒍𝒆 𝒊𝒏 𝑪𝒉𝒓𝒊𝒔𝒕 𝒇𝒊𝒓𝒔𝒕, 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝑯𝒆 𝒂𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒄𝒂𝒏 𝒕𝒓𝒖𝒍𝒚 𝒔𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒔𝒇𝒚 𝒖𝒔.

When it comes to relationships, purity is also a must.

S*x is a beautiful gift—but only within God’s intended context. And s*x is never meant to be self-centered.

We appreciate our speakers: Dr. Kath, Ptr. Brian, and his wife, Ate Mika. Thank you for your testimony and wisdom. 💛

Thank you also to everyone who served!!!

The phrase “𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐨𝐯𝐞” (Hebrew: ʿahavat ʿolam) indicates a love that precedes time and human response. This affirms that God’s love is grounded in His own nature and covenant faithfulness, not in our obedience. God loves first; human repentance or faith is a response, not the cause.

God gave His very best for us, 𝐉𝐞𝐬𝐮𝐬 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭.
May we also have the heart to give our best to Him.
The best of our energy, not what’s left after exhaustion.
The best of our time, not the remaining minutes at the end of the day, but our 𝐛𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐞𝐧𝐞𝐫𝐠𝐲, 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞, 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐟𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐭.

As we continue our medical school journey, may we be reminded not to worship our studies, 𝒃𝒖𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒘𝒐𝒓𝒔𝒉𝒊𝒑 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝑶𝒏𝒆 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝒈𝒊𝒇𝒕𝒆𝒅 𝒖𝒔 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒑𝒑𝒐𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒏𝒊𝒕𝒚 𝒕𝒐 𝒔𝒕𝒖𝒅𝒚 𝒎𝒆𝒅𝒊𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒆, 𝑮𝒐𝒅 𝑯𝒊𝒎𝒔𝒆𝒍𝒇.

In this season of studies, may we never forget to hold fast to Him, draw our strength from Him, and seek Him in everything we do.

In the end, it will be, “𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐈, 𝐛𝐮𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡 𝐂𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐞.”

Christ be glorified.

Thank you, TSO fam 💙
