Hello to you. How are you? I hope this finds you doing as best as you can. There is so much going on in this world!
When I was thinking of a topic today, the first thing that popped in my head was the word Love. What is Love? To me it’s a feeling that emanates in the heart and cascades out. When I am in connection with God and the people and animals I care about Love happens. Some people have no idea what Love truly is or what it feels like – some are those people that end up in prisons or state hospitals and animals that end up in shelters. I have been fortunate to have known Love all of my life. My family has been a source of unconditional Love. When I was in the hospital this last time they were there for me. My dog Link is a source of unconditional Love each day. I look forward to seeing his sweet face and wagging tail each morning!
Love is mentioned many times in the Bible. Here are a few passages:
1 Corinthians 13:4-5Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.
1 Corinthians 16:14Do everything in love.
Psalm 143:8Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I entrust my life.
Colossians 3:14And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity.
Proverbs 3:3-4Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. Then you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man.
1 John 4:16And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
1 Corinthians 13:13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Ephesians 4:2Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
1 Peter 4:8Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

Ephesians 3:16-17I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith. And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love.
John 15:12My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
I hope you know what true Love is – looks and feels like. You deserve it!
To be 
Such a sweet looking canine!
