The Greatest Of These!

Love such an amazing word and yet so hard for people to say.  Why do we always relate love only to the relationship between husband and wife or family members?  Are we not called, by our Savior, to love everyone we encounter?   Are we not to practice PHILIA love to other humans and friends regardless of who they are?  As I hug people I tell them of the love I have for them.  A love that Christ showed to everyone and thru the Holy Spirit I try to show.  It amazes me that so many struggle with the term and still others think it to be inappropriate.  Our true state of being and the center of our existence is a place of love.  “The greatest of these is love.”  Obviously to God not much else matters!

1 Corinthians 13:13

I Love You!

Crushing Anguish!

He had seen several crucifixions. He had walked past and witnessed the cruelty of the cross.  He saw how it looked… he had heard the suffering… he observed the agony.   Our Savior knew what was coming.   On this night in 33AD our Jesus felt unrelenting stress. He felt crushing anguish.  As he cried…

Oh How He Loves Us!

I’m often asked “Tell me what is the main lesson we can learn from Jesus life”.  Without a doubt he came to teach us first and foremost about love.  How to love others and how to love him and his father.  Every parable he told, every miracle he performed and every lesson he taught comes…
