Love is All


Love...does not seek its own, is not provoked. 1 Corinthians 13:4-5
This is, of course, Love month. I have been reminded so many times in the last couple of weeks, of the power and need for love. My uncle, who lives far away, fell over the weekend and broke his hip. He is blessed with a dear friend who has seen him through the surgery and is by his side right now.
Recently, through the wonders of Facebook, I have been reunited with a number of former students. We are having so much fun reacquainting and catching up. But, also, wondering what God has in plan for our coming together after almost 15 years or so.
Then there are the golf buddies who stick together through thick and thin.
And...the great fun of spending time with my bestest buddy two weeks ago. Lucy and Ethel time!!
Love comes in all shapes and sizes, far and near, old and new. Love needs to be shared and spread.
Mopping around because you don't have a friend close by...go out and get you one! It starts with a smile at the library, at work, at the store. There is someone out there that needs you and your friendship. Say "hey" to that new person at church.
Those two in the picture are two of our three best friends. That's Lucky (the white one) and Poppy. Remember, there is a friend waiting for you at the animal shelter :).
