If you love somebody, what you long for more than anything else is being near them, holding each other, and spending time together as you express your love and adoration in person.
After losing contact for fifteen years, Odis and I reestablished our relationship but had to spend the next four months 450 miles apart.
His letters were a joy, and having photos of each other was heartwarming and a comfort, but nothing compared to the few hours we spent in each other’s presence.
In 1973, there were no emails, text messages, FaceTime, or Zoom calls, so letters or long-distance phone calls were our only way to communicate.
While they were nice, they were expensive, and we made our conversation quality time!
Still, nothing compared to actually being together, holding and loving each other in person, and we treasured those moments.
Genuine love is not boastful, self-seeking, does not think too highly of themselves, but loves with an attitude of being a servant.
That’s how God loves us.
As we celebrate the resurrection day of our Savior Jesus Christ, cultivate a Jesus Love your mate, family, and friends!
Spend time in the Presence of God.
Happy Resurrection Day!
God is Love!
