st. John

There is a story that is told regarding the apostle St. John, who is known as the apostle of love. If you are unsure why he is know as such, please read the books towards the end of the new testament, first, second and third John.

Anyway, there is a story told that St. John is surrounded by his disciples. They are asking him, "why do you always teach us about love? That is all you ever talk about." They said, "please master, teach us of something else."

His reply is worth considering. He told his disciples, "I cannot teach you of something else, for there is nothing else."

It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.

We can never go wrong by making love our single philosophy and life priority. Love was everything, and above all, to Jesus. Who can argue with such sacrificial love. Keep love coming.

I love it--literally. I've been preaching this (yes, I preach occasionally) forever. It's all about love: love will keep us together, love never fails, love is all we need, "what the world needs now, is love"...God is love.
If we all loved each other as God has commanded us to do, it would be a more beautiful day in God's world every day--there would only be good to see ; )
