DAY49Love is Everywhere

I have always believed that reading books can expand the mind, touch the heart, and enrich the soul.

They can also cause your imagination to do some funny things at times.

I can remember several years ago reading a book where the hero went through several tragedies and at one point in the midst of his pain and torment cried out: “Where is Love?”

At that moment in my imagination I leapt into the story, grabbed him by the arm and told him: “It’s everywhere! It’s everywhere!”

Love is everywhere. You just have to open your heart to see it.

For me it is there every time I watch the dawn break upon a new day.

It is there every time a brisk winter breeze blows across my face.

It is there in the first flower of spring.

It is there in the green grass of summer.

It is there in the last leaf of fall.

It is there every time my handicapped sons give me a hug.

It is there every time my daughter laughs at one of my dumb jokes.

It is there in the adoring eyes of my old beagle and my new puppy.

It is there in the purring cat that naps on my chest.

It is there in the smile of the clerk behind the counter.

It is there in the old man who opens a door for me.

It is there when I read a letter from a friend.

It is there every time I pray.

It is there in everything I write and every act of kindness I do.

The Bible tells us that “God is Love.”

And since God is without beginning or end then so is love.

It fills all of His creation.

It fills us as well every time we open our hearts and souls to it.

Don’t shut out love then.

Don’t live your life in pain.

Open your heart instead.

Share your love instead.
