This morning I received a beautiful text message from my mother Madolyn. She told me she loved me. I know this and I have never doubted her love for me but it is so sweet seeing her love in action. She shared a quote with me from our favorite Saint.
“Nothing is sweeter than love; nothing stronger, nothing higher, nothing more generous, nothing more pleasant, nothing fuller or better in Heaven or on earth; for love proceeds from God and cannot rest but in God above all things created.” *By St Therese, the Little Flower*???
And there it is! The beauty of this quote, is in its truth. The line that jumped out at me was, “Love proceeds from God and cannot rest…”
Think about these words, LOVE CANNOT REST.
Love cannot rest, therefore Love is action! It’s praying for those you made a promise to pray for no matter the circumstance. It’s sending a text to just say Hello, I’m thinking of you, it’s a surprise gift just because!
How can you show others love through action today? Let us Love, truly in all its sweetness and never hold back.
