The Meditation
It is not difficult to experience love in a moment
or a mood of inspiration, but it is difficult to
let love dominate our total lives.
Love can hold a home together when reason and
law have failed.
Love can inspire people to work on when the way
is uncertain.
Love can keep us on the highways of hope,
when we are traveling in the dark.
Love can inspire a person to start over when they
have failed many times.
Christian love can take us by the hand and lead
us out of the jungle of emotional confusion.
Love can make us hold our temper when others
are exploding around us.
Love can keep us from writing back, speaking
back or fighting back when others treat us
wrong.
Love holds us, love helps us, and love hides us in
the heart of God.
“Jesus lover of my soul;
Let me to thy bosom fly,
While the near waters roll,
While the tempest still is high.”
