Forgiveness
When we show love to others, something happens. A bridge to a wounded heart begins to form. A passageway that was previously non-existent is now a possibility to consider. A broken spirit begins to mend. The flower of forgiveness starts to bloom where once there were only weeds. The debris on the edge of the shoreline is washed away, leaving smooth sand that beckons our feet to travel the uncharted distance into another's life.

One Heart
Have you ever met someone and---after only a short time---you feel like you have known them a very long time? When God lives in your heart, there is a bonding that can occur with others who love Him, too. It can become apparent very quickly. The heart that loves God has an open door to the heart of another that has also responded to the Lord with repentance and devotion.

A Friend Loves
Friends are beautiful gifts God has blessed us with. The closer we dare to look into these precious gifts, the more amazed we become at the intricate patterns of encouragement, comfort and love that is ours for the asking.

Pondering greatness
I was just leaving the park with one of my sons when I saw it. One of the most beautiful blooming bushes I had ever noticed. Stopping the car, I just had to grab my camera and get a closer look. I stood under the towering blooms as they reached high into the clear, blue sky, proclaiming silent, yet visible praise to their Maker. Thank you, Lord, for allowing me to ponder Your greatness displayed in nature at that moment.
