What we can never do
What we can never say
What we can never express:
Love
Pure Love
Melted into a single drop of His blood…

The great thing is when we realize that we always have it! His LOVE! His pure love is in all of us! It’s our treasure, even when we don’t know it’s there! Unfortunately we don’t realize it’s there most of the time. How sad for us!!!!!

I never imagined a Rembrandt in black and white! These two paintings make me think about the wood of the stable at Bethlehem and the wood of the cross at Calvary. In between thirty-three years of a life lived as LOVE.
