The words printed on the pages of my Bible give witness to the living and active revelation of the God of creation and salvation, the God of love who became the Word made flesh in Jesus, and I had better not forget it. If in my Bible reading I lose touch with this livingness, if I fail to listen to this living Jesus, submit to this sovereignty, and respond to this love, I become arrogant in my knowing and impersonal in my behavior. An enormous amount of damage is done in the name of Christian living by bad Bible reading. Caveat lector, let the reader beware. —Eugene Peterson

As today is celebrated in our country "Valentine's Day", "Love Day" I am struck of the reality of Mr Peterson's words, how many fail to listen to the LOVE JESUS and only respond in accordance to our OWN definition of Love. Christian or not, knowing His UNCONDITIONAL Love by action or words, if you do not know HIM, do not measure His love by what is given by those who "proclaim it"

HIS is ULTIMATE LOVE!!! LOVE ALL, each and every day!
