love thursday 03.18.10 ~ brotherly love



When we think about laying down a life for another we usually think in terms of a singular event. But it is possible for us to lay down our lives over the course of a lifetime, minute by minute and day by day. And it is the work of the Spirit to empower us as we seek to lose ourselves in acts of lovingkindness and sacrificial living.

No words.

Happy Love Thursday!

It is always interesting how the different philosophies and theosophies are alike. This could as easily be a Buddhist thought.
