"Made With Love"

Happy valentine everyone.
I want to share with all of you a little love story I took from our church bulletin this morning.

When I think of love, I think of my husband's 97-year-old grandmother. She lived on a widow's pension in an old farmhouse, but every Sunday without fail, she set out a feast fit for a king! Her house was always brimming over with people; somestimes twenty or more would come for Sunday dinner--half of whom she usually didn't even know. And Grandma would never let you help with the cleanup afterwards. She'd just say, "I'll do it tomorrow so I can remember today." One day I asked her, "Grandma, how do you do it? You"re always so warm and welcoming and full of joy." She just looked at me, smiled, opened her arms wide and said, "I just love everybody." just like Jesus--arms openwide, welcoming us to Him, telling us over and over again--"I just love everybody."

My love to all and
God bless
