Looking Into the Eyes of Love
Is it so strange to perceive a love so wonderful and
deep; a type of love worth dying for;
a type of love that spirals deeper and deeper inside
my most inner being?
Should I be surprised to find this kind of love even in
looking straight into the eyes of my most beloved dog?
Then is it so different to look into a child's eyes to view
deep inside and see the sweet, innocent joy from everlasting
youth that comes from a trusting childlike heart, soul and mind?
When one views with their spiritual eyes the beauty of the land,
mountains, trees, and the sandy beaches touching the
water's edge? Is it then so hard to believe that we could
really leave all of this true beauty behind us? That these
great wonders would always seek to find us where we live,
or is it the other way around?
Do we not understand that the Lord's spirit, love, strength,
courage and beauty resides not only within us but what is in
God's other creatures and creations that surround us?
Can we then not conceive of the idea that there is an ultimate
Creator that had the greatest kind of love for His children that will
forever astound us and hold us in awe?
