Hi. I know that when things appear so discouraging...they can appear bleak. And still...God continues to provide for us and love us. Maybe not in ways that are satisfactory to us...maybe not in ways that we are used to...maybe not even in ways that are in keeping with mainstream society...but still...love is present. But...because discouragement is there...wishing so much that things are different...wishing so much that things could be the same as before...because of all of this...love may not feel present...And...I truly understand this...I truly do. And we become so focused out what appears "wrong" that we totally are mesmerized into believing that nothing is right...and that even the occassional gratitude that we used to have...appoears gone too. But is the love gone because we just don't feel it? No...it is still there. How to find it? Seek out some simple treasures...as in a kindness and a smile from a stranger or even a kindness and a smile coming from you beloved to someone who is less fortunate...materially speaking...than perhaps you. Some of the simplest loving and most powerful treasures from God...are often overlooked. Notice these seemingly little treasures like smiles or little deeds of kindness...for they are indeed powerful enough to open our own hearts...and the hearts of others. Thank you for posting your post...and opening your heart for all of us. Loving and blessing you always. Jim. and keep in touch and let us know how things are going.
