All we need is Love.......

We live in trying times, of course each generation and periods of time have challenges.  We will have trials on earth.  The good news.......this is not our final home.  Politics are hot discussion and debate topics right now, and often times in 21st century America.  No matter your political views, what is more vital is do we exemplify love.  I am a conservative in every facet of life-that is my make-up. Is that the only way to live ones life, of course not.  I firmly believe the best medicine during hurting and divisive times is love.  I did not come up with that at all, it stems from our creator God.  One of my favorite passages is tabbed "the love chapter"-1 Corinthians 13.  I recommend checking it out if you never have, or it's been a while.  Verse 13 concludes by stating of faith, hope and love-the greatest of these is love.  Love is an action of course.  Also an attitude.  1 John 4:8 says he who does not love does not know God, because God is love.  Of course a huge hurdle is, sometimes this is challenging (love your enemies), yet I am convinced in order to truly experience joy, peace, and life itself.......love is a key component (love your neighbor as yourself-Mark 12:31).  It must be sincere (Romans 12:9). What a special blessing in the ability to love and be loved.  Perhaps the Beatles were on to something.......all you need is love!  Blessings in your pursuit.......TO
