"The most
wonderful of all things in life is the discovery of another human being with
whom one’s relationship has a growing depth, beauty and joy as the years
increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most
marvelous thing; it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately
wishing for it. It is a sort of divine accident, and the most wonderful of all
things in life." Sir Hugh Walpole
All these years
later after career changes, children, relocating, losing parents,
ministering...I can honestly say that the thing that has bound us together
through everything in our lives is love.
- Love so deep that I never dreamed it existed.
- Love so profound and overwhelming that you can hardly breathe.
- Love so rich that if God took you from this world at this very moment, you would say that you had experienced everything life had to offer with no regrets.
You don't have to be a "soul mate" on this Earth to experience this kind of love. You already have it, Beloved. God loves you this way. He loves you in a way that you can't put into words. He loves you at this moment, just exactly how you are. We are all broken people. We struggle with something and God will meet us right where we are at. You just have to have an open heart.
My prayer for you
today is that you know you are loved with an everlasting, unfailing love that
only the Creator of the Universe can give you.
"Beloved, let us love one another, for love is
from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does
not love does not know God, because God is love." 1 John 4:7-8 (NIV)
