LOVE

Wednesday, July 12, 2006

In the evening of life, we shall be judged on love, and not one of us is going to come off very well, and were it not for my absolute faith in the loving forgiveness of my Lord, I could not call him to come.
Madeleine L'Engle
I was reading today and came across this quote and it really hit me. The truth of the matter is not one of us loves like He loves. He is unconditional. I try to love that way, but always fall short. I get weary in well doing. I forget to pray for others. I am not willing to do the things I know I should do at times. I am not always lovable. I don't always put others before me. I have alot of things to work on. Perhaps that is why I came across this quote today.

I love that quote..it speaks volumes to me. Mom is good some days and not so much the others. Mostly right now its her anxiety and memory loss. How is your mom? It is the season we are in now, there is no way to alter it, thankfully God provides friends like yourself to help get through it. God Bless !

Would that we could learn to love like Him just a little bit more each day.

Dana,
I often wish I could love unconditionally as He does. I always fall short.
