“Love one another and you will be happy. It's as simple and as difficult as that.” Michael Leunig

“And it is my prayer that your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment...” Phil.1.9

Everyday is another day to love and to be loved. Surely there is no better life than to spend your day loving people. And, we could also say that there are times when nothing can be more difficult. This is why our love must mature in wisdom. Love seeks what is the best for those we love, wisdom shows us the best way to love them. What value is there in knowing what is best but failing to achieve it because of the wrong approach. Of course we can learn wisdom by trial and error, what we could call the hit and miss approach or we could use a better approach and just ask God for it. He has promised to give wisdom to those who ask. His greatest command directs us to our greatest need and that is to look to Him for the greatest results. 12/1/11 Conversations Within ts (Birmingham, AL)
