I'll be the first to admit that I am not the supreme lovey-dovey type. Oh, I love everyone. I LOVE some more than others, or differently than others. But, I am not an "All you need is love," guy. There are times when we have to rise up and take a stand and fight. But, that is not the word for today...
Today, I would like to talk about love, and the fact that we all need it and that it can overcome so much. There are so many folks in our world that really need a good dose of love. They have been abused and beat down and neglected and rejected, and they need to see that that isn't the truth; that there is a GOD Who loves them and values them and desires them. And, the way they will see Him is through the love we share with them.
You may be saying, "Well, I tried to love ol' so and so and it wasn't worth it." I agree that some folks are harder to love than others but they all deserve love. What if that someone was your loved one that was struggling with addiction or self-image or battling some demon that we don't know. Wouldn't you still love them? Wouldn't you want someone to reach them? Wouldn't you want them to find GOD'S peace in it all? So, what do you do when you've loved all you can and seen no results?
Today's word is something that I came across that sums up my thoughts for today: "A physician once said, 'The best medicine for humans is love. If it doesn't seem to be working, increase the dose.'"
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
