Let my life be a love song to You.

i'm still feeling so excited about what happened to me a few nights back that i have to blog it down this morning. so its valentines day. a day for soppy lovey dovey romance, where the burning incense of love lingers in the air like a contagious disease, that is being inhaled instantly by almost everyone walking down the street. u see, my radio is pre set at Class 95fm everynight before i sleep, and it doesn't help when they constantly keep playing the most love-sickly driven songs, more so to get their listeners in the mood for love as what DJ Yas would say on her segment of 'love songs'. on this particular night and coincidentally, i was thinking about certain things that got me pretty upset. i felt so vulnerable at that very moment and i began to absorb every love song i heard like a sponge, as though it was describing my sad situation to my seemingly sad life.
This was the particular song that was playing.

When you feel the sunlight
Fade into the cold night
Don't know where to turn
I don't know where to turn
And all the dreams you're dreaming
Seem to lose their meaning
Let me in your world
Baby, let me in your world
All you need is someone you can hold
Don't be sad
you're not alone

Chorus:
I will be here for you
Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
I'll shine a light for you
Somewhere in the night
I'll be standing by
I will be here for you

And at this point i was telling myself, 'wow, wouldn't it be so romantic if someone was singing that to you and actually meant it with all his heart?' And then it HIT me lk a thunder bolt as i was listening to the 2nd verse,

In this world of strangers
Of cold unfriendly faces
Someone you can trust
Oh there's someone you can trust
I will be your shelter
I'll give you my shoulder
Just reach out for my love
Reach out for my love
Call my name and my heart will hear
I will be there, there's nothing to fear

all i could think of was Jesus. He is that man who is singing that to me and He means every word of it. He is the lover of my soul, my redeemer, my everything. He is all i need. i don't need some person to sing me sweet love-songs, or to feel any voids of 'belongingness'. So no valentine's day is going to make me think or feel otherwise.
