Happy Valentine's Day!

TEARS IN A BOTTLE COLLECTION
Caryl Ramsdale, American Poet

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. I JOHN 4:7 KJV

WHEN LOVE'S RIGHT
to Kathleen (Kat) Casey Tester Irwin

I speak only one language,
Don't claim to know everything;
Can't predict one tomorrow
But—I know what love can bring.
Love's our greatest emotion,
It will bring you to your knees;
Love's the thrill of a lifetime
And it makes you want to please.
At our request, God can send
The love of our life to us;
He will choose one pure in heart—
One absolutely righteous.
God responds to sighs and tears...
He interprets them as prayer;
Even murmurs and longings
Whisper to Him that you care.
Love can swim a raging sea—
Or sprout wings and soar in flight—
Love moves towering mountains—
Love has power when love's right.
