A four letter word, some would say, Miss He...Love. A four letter word, some would say, Miss Heaven! So tender, diminutive, yet so vast in it's interpretation. I believe it is the one thing we are endowed with that makes true the passage "created in His image." For what image is God, Heaven, if not love? I also think it makes us uniquely human. I think you are quite in tune with the fact that love is the only thing in this life that matters. Life is like the surprise quiz your 8th grade teacher used to shock you with on an occasional Friday. No matter the question, love is always the answer. We are being tested here on our own merit, our willingness to keep, share, or disgard the love God has showered us with. Nothing else, nothing else, nothing else truly matters. Beautiful poem Miss Grace. "Loved" Shakespeare's advice on marriage.
