Hi
Do you know how to really love someone? Are you willing to go without for someone else?
I love the crispness in the air in September! It is a favorite season since the windows can now be opened and my dog Trixie is not so hot!
Her heavy coat of hair caused her tongue to pant most of the summer. She would carry her ball to the tree shade and make me come play over there!
We even had to buy a pool for the backyard just for her to play! The pool was 10 feet long (needed room for me to set up my lounger to read a great novel) and it had three tubes of air. she loved jumping in after her ball. And, surprise, it only took her 2 weeks to pop the first tier! Her crazy antics and jumping in and out was a sure pop waiting to happen.
She loved it!
I love her so much.
Yet - let me ask you - How much do love your dog? How do you show it?
How much do you love your spouse? How do you show it?
How much do you love yourself? How do you show it?
Love is a difficult subject to fully embrace. And yet - we are called to love! We are loved!
Yet - here is the big question - How much do you really love God?
I mean beyond old written scripts and expected responses.
What do you turn to when you are stressed?
Emotionally upset?
Feel misunderstood?
Anxious?
Do you love God?
If you answer yes, then He would be the one you turn to in each of these situations.
I told you LOVE is a difficult subject!
Yet, how many times did we skip the love chapter and head straight to food?
