    Life is short, but dead is for a very long time. Put as much love into your life as you can, while you can.

    I love short Bible verses that get straight to the point—like this one. Another of my favorites is Romans 12:12: “Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.”
    Thanks, Mitch. Even a little love goes all long way.

    Indeed, love is the greatest law of the universe…

    “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?” And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the great and first commandment. And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets.”—Matthew 22:36-40, RSV

    Thanks for the reminder, Mitch. I was starting to get upset over something that was NOT the main thing. (Our pastor always says “The main thing is keeping the main thing the main thing.”😏👍)

    Das einzige was zählt
    ist was Gott im Traum durch die Seele
    jedem Menschen sagt
    zu gehorchen

    This is wonderful, Mitch.
    Did you ever have your ablation?
    Perhaps I missed a follow-up post.
    Happy Sunday. 🌅

      Thank you for asking, Nancy. No, I had a minor (unrelated) medical procedure that, the electrophysiologist said, compromised my condition. So they rescheduled the ablation for late July. Happy Sunday to you!
