Greetings and Salutations to all! This excerpt from the Our Daily Bread website is spot on so to speak... you don't have to move mountains to cause a significant inspiration to another... you don't even have to use a lot of money in hopes of impressing another... just LOVE them my dears... show them love... give them a listening ear and a helping hand. LOVE is to me the most powerful 4 letter word in the English Language.... there are so many meanings to that small word for so many different kinds of relationships we encounter in our lifetime. L..O...V...E. Be a Blessing today and all days Let Your Love Flow to Others... Let it Pour. God bless, Loves and Hugs XOXO <3 Barb Gadway

Love And Prayer
In a popular children’s book, Winnie the Pooh watches Kanga bound away. I wish I could jump like that, he thinks. Some can and some can’t. That’s how it is.
We see younger or more able men and women doing extraordinary things that we cannot do. They can; we can’t. That’s how it is. It’s easy to feel useless when we can’t do the things we were once capable of doing.
It’s true that we may not be able to “jump” like we once did, but we can love and we can pray. These are the works that time and experience have prepared us to do well.
Love is the very best gift we have to give to God and to others. It is no small matter, for love is the means by which we fulfill our whole duty to God and our neighbor. Our love for one person may seem to be a small action, but love is the greatest gift of all (1 Cor. 13:13).
And we can pray. Paul encouraged the Colossians to “continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving” (Col. 4:2). Our prayers are a powerful force in the universe!
Love and prayer are mighty works indeed, the mightiest works for any of us. Why? Because our God, who wants to use us, is an all-loving and all-powerful God.
Begin the day with God;
Kneel down to Him in prayer;
Lift up thy heart to His abode,
And seek His love to share. —Dann

God pours His love into our hearts that it might flow out to others.
They shall still bear fruit in old age; they shall be fresh and flourishing. —Psalm 92:14
