The Power of Love

I was trying to look up some quotes, thoughts and scriptures for a friend who was recently diagnosed with Cancer. I always pray that I can give them, just the right thing that will inspire them to hang on and be happy. I came across this one on the Power of Love, it was a great quote and one that should give anyone hope. It goes like this...

"THERE IS NO DIFFULTY THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT CONQUER; NO DISEASE THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT HEAL; NO DOOR THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT OPEN; NO GULF THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT BRIDGE; NO WALL THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT THROW DOWN; NO SIN THAT ENOUGH LOVE WILL NOT REDEEM....

IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE HOW DEEPLY SEATED MAY BE THE TROUBLE; HOW HOPELESS THE OUTLOOK; HOW MUDDLED THE TANGLE; HOW GREAT THE MISTAKE.  A SUFFICIENT REALIZATION  OF LOVE WILL DISSOLVE IT ALL.  IF ONLY YOU COULD LOVE ENOUGH YOU WOULD BE THE HAPPIEST AND MOST POWERFUL BEING IN THE WORLD."                                                       ------------------Emmet Fox

That is amazing to think about, it definitely is looking at the glass HALF FULL!  But it is true.

I know on days that I worry too much about too many things, if I just stop and COUNT MY MANY BLESSINGS, then I realize that life isn't all that bad and that I am indeed one of the luckiest women in the world! For I have so many people who I love and that love me. So I will send this quote off in a card to my dear friend and hope that she will remembered she is LOVED and that she is never ALONE. The struggles are huge, but hopefully through this POWER OF LOVE she will realize that she will be guided and taken care of.

"WE BEGAN BY IMAGINING THAT WE ARE GIVING TO THEM; WE END BY REALIZING THAT THEY HAVE ENRICHED US."                                                  ----------------Pope John Paul II
