Tolkien: Strangest Truth Love+ Grief

A Short Time With Larry 4-13-2021 Love Grief
 
Listen: http://www.larrylilly.net/blog
 
I have spent much time on love and in so doing I learned more. Love is like that. My wife and I have loved each other for over 60 years. Married 57 of those years. Yet, I discover something new about her. She insists the discovery has been there all the time.
 
A song of our youth was titled, “Love is a many splendored Thing.” It’s true, but it does not deal with the strangest truth about human or divine love.
 
Try this on for size from J.R.R. Tolkien, Lord of the Rings:
 
“In all lands love is now mingled with grief.”
 
Many love songs leave out the grief, but love always brings forth grief. True love over comes this and continues.
 
We Christians are warned about Grieving the Holy Spirit. Ephesians 4:30. 31-32 tells why. He knows such acts have painful consequences for you!
 
Larry Lilly make today count.
