Band-aid

"It is by loving, and not by being loved, that one can come nearest the soul of another; yea, that, where two love, it is the loving of each other, that originates and perfects and assures their blessedness. I knew that love gives to him that loveth, power over mny soul be loved, even if that soul know him not, bringing him inwardly close to that spirit; a power that cannot be but for good; for in proportion as selfishness intrudes, the love ceases, and the power which springs therefrom dies.
Yet all love will, one day, meet with its return. "
About 3 months ago, I slammed my thumb in the door. The cool thing is that a few minutes before doing it, I was standing by the door watching my husband leave for work and I started sucking my thumb like I had already hurt it. Very cool.
I'd say I've got about another month to go before it stops looking purple. Sometimes it takes a long time to heal.
I'm glad I've got this band-aid of Love that is always ready to help me heal.
1John 4:7 -
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God.
Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
