it's 38 degrees outside, seeing stars just outside my door, fondue, silly girlie movie with the girls, a new cookbook, new books to read, yummy food, Wegmans and their "Gluten-Free" labeling, and sleeping under my IKEA feather quilt tonight, sleeping past 6:30 am. dancing tomorrow night, hair cuts and shopping on saturday, farmer's market with fresh apple cider, and happy mail.
it's amazing the difference a day makes :)
...for the greatest bestowal of God is love. Love is the source of all the bestowals of God. Until love takes possession of the heart, no other divine bounty can be revealed in it. -Abdu'l-Baha
I ran across this quote on Monday when I was searching around for things to read during prayer time with C and had forgotten my prayer book once again. then, I received a lovely card today with this quote on it as well. It's been the source of much thought recently. as many of you know, I've thought about love and it's power a lot over the past year, as it is the topic of my blog after all.
It's an interesting journey I'm on now, I can't wait to see the next bend in the road... I feel kind of like a living Jenga game... every moment a new block is taken out from under me and I have to try to balance, and before I get to balancing another one is taken. But, I can cheat, I can use sticks to hold me up, I just have to work to find them in prayers and love and friends. I thank God for giving us love.
What a power is love! It is the most wonderful, the greatest of all living powers.
The first [kind of love] is the love that flows from God to man...This love is the origin of all the love in the world of creation.
