Living a Life of Love

Originally written about 3 years ago, I finally did some revisions and finished this off yesterday.

Living a Life of Love

Love is a kiss from heaven
When life falls apart
and the Savior is there to pick up the pieces

Love is a hug that cures the pain
The healing embrace
that can only come from the Fathers arms

Love is the calming knowlege
that He is always here
His presence is not dependant on my goodness

Love is trusting His plan
His enabling grace
helps me to chose his way as I take each step

Love is accepting His strength
He gives it to me
because I know I can't do it all on my own

Love is surrender to Him
Chosing His will
though it means I give up my desires and plans

Love is touching the unlovely
Feeling His pain for them,
seeing through His eyes those who are in despair

Love is speaking His words
Seeing Him restore
others lives as He has already restored mine

Love is His sweet refreshing
At the end of each day
when I've emptied myself for Him He fills me again.

Chocolate Factory

Last week I got to go to a very cool place, Boehms chocolate factory in Issaquah. It is so cool, not only because of the melt in your mouth goodness they produce but also because of the amazing authentic swiss architecture and the cool collections that accumulated as a result of Julius Boehms amazing and diverse intrests.

*Because of internet issues, I haven't been able to post for a couple weeks, thus the multiple posts in one day now.

Cool spider

Another one of God's amazing creatures! I found this guy while picking raspberries. Isn't the pattern on its back so cool?
