Modeling God's Love


In looking back at past posts I came across this timely piece that I thought to share again on the heels of Father's Day weekend.

I must confess I have never followed Kathy Grifford's career before, but in an interview she gave a reflection of her life, and it would appear she has been a blessing to many people. She states her purpose in life is to be a blessing and that as long as she has a pulse, God has plans for her and she is eagerly looking for ways to reach out in a kind word or deed to those in her path. She states she took her cue from Paul Newman and shares her journey in her new book, "Just When I Thought I'd Dropped My Last Egg". She unabashedly proclaims God in her life and her role as his child and compares his unfailing love for her as modeled by her earthly father who recently passed away.

Personally I am encouraged to check my course and path after hearing her speak and I pray you are too. May God continue to use each of us with our talents and gifts to be an encouragement to those around us daily, so that we may live richer and more meaningful lives touching others with the love of Christ that is in us.
