Total Love

No truer words have ever been voiced. It is difficult to understand that kind of love or to put into words the impact that kind of love would have on those who embrace it. I can't name anyone who has encountered a flesh and blood  living person in this day and age that has experienced it. Can you? It is available though. We all seek it. We all long for the kind of love that knows no age, no limit, no death. The problem is the definition this world has for love is not that kind of love but one that is age limited and does die. It is based on sexuality not love. Take a look at the divorce rates and length of marriages. Real love is not physical. It is far superior to that. It is not based on a heightened feeling that lasts a short time. It is caring and giving without conditions or limits. It is not looking at what am I getting out of it but what is the need of another. It is when there is a mutual exchange of this kind that love becomes something more. Life long growing into this kind of love creates a bond that is truly permanent.  This is what becoming one is all about. This is what it means to become one with your wife/husband. This is what it means to become one with God, Christ and the Holy Spirit. This is what it means to become part of the body of Christ. This is the love that has no age, limits or death. Christmas is nearly upon us. Enter into this season with the proper thoughts and attitude. Thanks and worship of our Lord are in order over and above the gift giving to one another.

The image I am sharing today is another image from yesteryear. The image says it is a Bibiana flower but when researched it is called a baboon flower. Go figure! 

The Copic colors used are:

I know, this is a lot of colors. The light lavender is a tough color to match in the flowers and I wanted to be sure the pot got some attention too.

That is it for this week. May God bless and keep you safe. Remember to always "Love The Details."

  1. Fabulous quote Jim, and some great thoughts to go with it.
    Loving your colouring - that pot is so dramatic, but yet it does not detract from the flowers or the overall look of the image

  4. Love has no age, no limit and no death.....so true! We are supposed to become one when we marry, few do anymore though that I agree. It's to easy to call it quits and not work on a marriage...easier to just get divorced. Sad isn't it?! Dwayne was and still is the love of my life. I love him even more now and he is gone, but not gone from my heart. Was our marriage easy...no, but we worked on it, communicated with each other and we finally became one. Thus why I still struggle to know who I am without Dwayne. We were a team, we were definitely one. Our love came later in life, but not late in life like some. Some meet and fall in love in their 80's and 90's! I really love this post Jim, hopefully it makes people think about love. Because love certainly has no age, no limit and no death. Wow, never heard of this flower before, but it sure is a beautiful image! Love the extra love you gave the pot too. So beautiful as usual!! Hugs and Blessings, Brenda
