New Calendar

I STILL love paper calendars! I like them with pretty designs on them; I like inspirational quotes on them and I like the action of writing on the calendar instead of typing something of importance into my phone.

My old school calendar preferences make me happy. I have a month to month agenda style calendar for writing down activities and a day by day inspirational calendar.

Recently I retired a day by day calendar I had received as a gift maybe 5-7 years ago. It is one of those “quote a day” calendars where you flip the page each day to reveal a new thought. I just kept restarting it over and over through the years. That calendar has been well loved; well used. But I was out and about yesterday and saw a newer version of that calendar and this one is all attractive with pretty colors, pictures and images and something inspirational stated per day. I love it…but the other one is simply tucked in a drawer in case I need it to come out of retirement someday.

Today the inspiration on the new calendar is just 2 words: LOVE WELL.

God has advice for that…

1 Corinthians 13— “Love is patient, love is kind.”

1 John 4:16– “So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.”

Ephesians 4:1-2– “I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love.”

1 John 4:12— “No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.”

DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE LOVE THOUGHT, QUOTE OR PASSAGE?
