Sabbath Keeping

by Sandra Bennett
Sabbath Keeping· TCF

23 Oct
“I have loved you with an everlasting love.
I have drawn you with everlasting kindness.”
~ Jeremiah 31:3 ~ 

“Love is not blind….it sees more, not less.
But because it sees more, it is willing to see less.”
~ Rabbi Julius Gordon ~ 

“Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, 
while loving someone deeply gives you courage.”

“Love begins with like, then facing the same direction…together.” ~ Sandra ~

“Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.”

“If she’s amazing, she won’t be easy. If she’s easy, she won’t be amazing. If she’s worth it, you won’t give up. If you give up, you aren’t worthy. … Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.” (italics mine)
~ Bob Marley ~

“You don’t divide your love; you multiply it.” ~ Sandra ~

“Waiting is a sign of true love and patience. Anyone can say I love you but not everyone can wait and prove it’s true.”

“Love isn’t something you find. It’s something that finds you.”
~ Loretta Young ~

“It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for what you are not.”
~ Andre Gide ~

“Love never dies a natural death. It dies because we don’t know how to replenish its source. It dies of blindness and errors and betrayals. It dies of illness and wounds; it dies of weariness, of witherings, of tarnishings.” ~ Anais Nin ~

“Love is friendship that has caught fire. It is quiet understanding, mutual confidence, sharing and forgiving. It is loyalty through good and bad times. It settles for less than perfection and makes allowances for human weaknesses.”
~ Ann Landers ~

“Kindness in words creates confidence.
Kindness in thinking creates profoundness.
Kindness in giving creates love.”
~ Lao Tzu ~

Today, I am worshiping at Ocean Drive Presbyterian Church and listening to Part 3 of God’s Perspective.

“God’s Perspective: What Are the Beliefs I Build My Life On?” here, Part 1
“God’s Perspective: How Do I Strengthen My Christian World View?” here, Part 2
“God’s Perspective: Where Did We Come From and What Difference Does That Make?” here, Part 3

“I Am Second“
“Love must be sincere.”
~ Romans 12:9 ~

(Today’s post written for new Christian sisters Mackenzie and Karen with apologies for, perhaps, incorrect spelling.)

Please pray as the Holy Spirit guides.

    Loved your LOVE quotes and verses . . .
    Liked this one . . . I think because his last name is Gordon, (no relation)

    I enjoyed all the quotes, but the relaxing pooch brought the biggest smile to my face…a siesta in the sun…I am jealous!
