Broken hearts cry out today

Broken hearts cry out today.  Their pain echo in the winds and their tears fall upon us.  The divide is so very palpable and real.  What do we do with this pain, both those who feel it and those who see it?  We have a grave responsibility to one another on both sides of this divide.  Responsibility accompanied by great potential to cross over and love and embrace heartfelt feelings.  Today more than ever, our compassion and love can reach new heights.  No longer bound by policies and ideologies but fully surrendered and sacrificed in outstretched love.  Love that is greater than any other feeling within.  Love that reaches over and says I’m sorry, I understand, I see you, I hear you.  Love that is unconditionally displayed and overflowing.  May we rise to the occasion today and reach deep within and believe in hope that love will triumph.  May we be lovers of love; “agape” love.
 
“It is a love that seeks nothing in return. It is an overflowing love; it’s what theologians would call the love of God working in the lives of men. And when you rise to love on this level, you begin to love men, not because they are likeable, but because God loves them. You look at every man, and you love him because you know God loves him. And he might be the worst person you’ve ever seen.” – Martin Luther King
 
May love take us to new heights and to new relationships.  Relationships that will teach us the art of listening, noticing and ultimately loving. 
 
May our love spread like wildfire.  Unstoppable, Uncontrollable, Incomparable.  May they know us by our love.
 
“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
-I Corinthians 13:4-8.
​
“He came to this world and became a man in order to spread to other men the kind of life He has — by what I call "good infection." Every Christian is to become a little Christ. The whole purpose of becoming a Christian is simply nothing else.”
​
– C.S. Lewis
