Love lost...

Dear God~
My heart aches for the present tragedies in our world.  Watching the news reminds me of many external concerns and I seek Your hope, peace and guidance for each of them.

But my heart also aches very deeply for another daily, senseless tragedy.  It is widespread.  It is wounding.  It is destructive.  It is deadly.  It is excruciating.  When did we forget about loving one another?  When did it become acceptable to hurt one another, neglect one another, abandon one another, not care about one another, accuse one another and slander one another?  How shocking when it happens often among people who should care about one another most.

Dear God, please help us to love one another...genuinely, unselfishly, consistently....again.♥~thl

"Love is patient, love is kind.  It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  It is not rude, 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. And now these three remain:  faith, hope and love.  But the greatest of these is love."  1 Corinthians 13:  4>7, 13
