The Power of Love

She was beautiful and accomplished; he was handsome, funny, and successful. Together, they had a beautiful family.

Imagine her shock when he told her he was in love with another woman and wanted a divorce. She felt, in her words, as if "someone had shaken the jar that was my life and then placed it upside down."

Pushing beyond her anger, disappointment, self righteousness, and hurt, she decided, "I love our family, and I want to keep my marriage."

That decision began a process of healing for both of them. It took time, but today, although their lives aren't perfect, together they have a beautiful family and enjoy their lives.

omeday, after we have mastered the winds, the waves, and gravity, mankind will harness for God the energy of love. Then, for the second time in the history of the world, we will have discovered fire.  Teilhard de Chardin   

You write it:  What in your life needs love? What do you need to push beyond? What are you willing to do?
