From Dawn to dusk And Everything in between How is it You show love? Do you do Anything? Upon awakening Hug Embrace I love you Kiss Late morning Midday Late afternoon Early evening How Have you Spent your day? Noticing Validating Thinking about Kind words Gentle touch I appreciate you Thank you very much Expressions Of love Different for Everyone The giver The receiver Communication Messages received Verbal Non-verbal Silence Somewhere thereabouts Evening's arrival Time for bed This day Has come to An end Goodnight A touch A kiss I love you Off to slumber Off to restore Off to repair Body Mind Soul Next morning Day ahead
The writing above all came about when thinking about how we show and share our love with one another. The image of a sandwich came to mind with only the bun and no ingredients in between.
Sometimes, that's how we go about our days. A little something in the morning to get them through the day and then in the evening upon going to bed to last until waking up the next day.
What is it we need to sustain us? Love? Attention? Touch? Is what we're given by our loved ones enough? Do you feel like you need so much more, more than a little gesture of love upon waking and at night?
Maybe I'm a bit too demanding...
Maybe I'm a bit too selfish...
Maybe I'm a bit too needy...
Maybe I'm a bit too touchy feely...
Then again, maybe not!
I know I am exactly the right dose. His love sustains me. When worldly things let us down, don't give up hope! Rise up! Raise your arms up! Lift your head up high! Give everything you've got up to God!
He has much love for you and I. It's all there, written, His word. This journey of mine, I am learning a little something every step of the way. I appreciate you being part of this journey.
What started out in my rough draft notes, comparing life to a sandwich, that which is more than just a bun, bread with so many ingredients and substance, turned into something much deeper.
As the night progressed, I dug deeper into His word. That's when He brought my focus and attention to Him about being the "bread of life" and "man shall not live on bread alone."
Amazing what spending just a little bit of time with God can do for the body, mind and soul! He brought an awareness to me this evening, words needing to be expressed and shared.
The following is a youtube link to listen to, "I am the Bread of Life" song. May you be comforted by hearing His words.
