Let's Love Large...

PAD Challenge day 24: For experienced PAD challengers, today’s final “Two for Tuesday” prompt was likely easy to guess:

1. Write a love poem.
2. Write an anti-love poem.

Let’s love large

In touch, prayer and smiles

Let’s lose all count

Of its second miles

Let’s love big

In unnumbered small ways

For love has no end

And love never fails

So, let’s choose love

Let its give-and-forgive

Reflect God

Through a love that we live

Let's let love

Be Our Charge

And through small ways

Let's love large

How many small ways can we love large today? 

Hold a door, smile, buy a Tim-card (Coffee-card)and surprise someone,

pray like we mean it, call your mother, drop by someone lonely for a visit,

add an extra I-love-you-touch to dinner... (candles or a pretty centerpiece,)

Listen when someone else is talking, 

Let's love til it becomes a way of life:)

It's as simple (or hard) as reaching beyond ourselves to cheer someone else.

Here is a humorous 'love bears all things' story from BJ.
(I printed it out for my parent's Christmas card because I know they can relate...;-)
