The Best Companion

Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed on us, that we should be called children of God! —1 John 3:1

Some people looking for love have found help in an unusual place—a taxicab in New York City. Taxicab driver Ahmed Ibrahim loves to set up blind dates for his single passengers. His matchmaking services have been featured on the Fox News Channel, The Wall Street Journal, and NBC’s Today show. He doesn’t assist just anybody though; they have to be serious about looking to settle down with someone. Ahmed loves to help romance blossom, and he even hands out roses on Valentine’s Day.

The best place to find love is not in another person but in a book, the Bible. The Bible tells of God’s great love for us. This is expressed in what my friend called the best love note she had ever received. It’s found in John 3:16.

For God so loVed the world,

That He gAve

His onLy

BegottEn

SoN

That whoever

Believes In Him

Should Not perish

But have Everlasting life


God loves us like no one else ever could. He showed that love when He sent His Son, Jesus, to be our Savior. He’s also the best companion we’ll ever have.

Open your Bible and learn more about Him.
The more you read the Bible, the more you’ll love its Author. (taken from Our Daily Bread)

Tokyo Love Story Lyrics

Yesterday night, when I was doing my curriculum design, a friend greeted me on yahoo messenger. He asked me to translate the song from Tokyo Love story TV drama. This is the lyrics in Kanji characters and romaji and translation. It is not a perfect translation. If you know better translation, please say so. I will revise it. The original title of the song is "Love story wa totsuzen ni ラブ・ストーリーは突然に" (A love story suddenly begins) 何から伝えればいいのか　分からないまま時は流れて　　 浮かんでは　消えてゆく　ありふれた言葉だけ　　 君があんまりすてきだから　　ただすなおに　好きと言えないで　　 多分もうすぐ　雨も止んで　二人　たそがれ　　 あの日　あの時　あの場所で　君に会えなかったら　　 僕らは　いつまでも　見知らぬ二人のまま　　 誰かが甘く誘う言葉に　もう心揺れたりしないで　　 切ないけど　そんなふうに　心は縛(ｼﾊﾞ)れない　　 明日(ｱｼﾀ)になれば君をきっと　今よりもっと好きになる　　 そのすべてが僕のなかで　時を越えてゆく　　 君のためにつばさになる　君を守りつづける　　 やわらかく　君をつつむ　あの風になる　　 あの日　あの時　あの場所で　君に会えなかったら　　 僕らは　いつまでも　見知らぬ二人のまま 今　君の心が動いた　言葉止めて　肩を寄せて　　 僕は忘れないこの日を　君を誰にも渡さない　　 君のためにつばさになる　君を守りつづける　　 やわらかく　君をつつむ　あの風になる　　 あの日　あの時　あの場所で　君に会えなかったら　　 僕らは　いつまでも　見知らぬ二人のまま　　 誰かが甘く誘う言葉に　心揺れたりしないで　　 君をつつむ　あの風になる　　 あの日　あの時　あの場所で　君に会えなかったら　　 僕らは　い
