falling in love

Love.

We were created passionate creatures, to love and be loved.  It's more than you ever hoped for; better than your wildest dreams; consuming your body, mind, and soul.  Just be sure who or what you fall in love with is worthwhile [everlasting or eternal if you will].

The best advice I can suggest is to keep your eye on the One who has saved us.  With your priorities straight, everything will fall into place as He is our guide; the way, the truth, & the light.  It's true what they say:  I love because He first loved me.

'Delight yourself in the Lord & He will give you the desires of your heart.' - Psalm 37:4

happy Christmas friends.  I miss you.

Live for Him, Live like Jesus.  run for life. ~ JSO

Nothing is more practical than finding God, that is, than falling in love in a quite absolute, final way.

What you are in love with, what seizes your imagination, will affect everything. It will decide what will get you out of bed in the morning, what you will do with your evenings, how you will spend your weekends, what you read, who you know, what breaks your heart, and what amazes you with joy and gratitude.

Fall in love, stay in love and it will decide everything.

Double posts in one day again. This was too good not to, everyday I'm filled with joy and reminded how glad I am that I fell in love.
