Face your problems with the power of the Almighty as your shield. Do what you have to do, protect whatever you have to protect, but do it with the power of love, not with vengeance or despair. Love makes the world go round, they say, Jacob quipped. Then 'they' would be right, Jonathan smiled. Love is the essence of Christianity, the sounding brass and the tinkling of cymbals, the gift of prophecy and the key to understanding all mysteries.
Love is the fruit of all knowledge.
This is the first and great commandment. And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets. Jonathan paused to look away into the heavens. This faith in life s purpose is as necessary to me as breath itself.
