Love

[la_dolcezza]

Today I read Leo Tolstoy's book What Men Live By. If you are having questions about God's love and/or your love for others (and you know who you are) then I highly recommend it. It's short, more of a short story really. It took me 30 minutes but wow, what an impact it had on my attitude. You can read the entire thing online by clicking the link

That was wonderful :) Thank you for sharing. I love the part about "man not knowing what he needs." Praise God that He is soverign over all.

Add another "e" to sovereign. He's sovereign over grammar too.

It is not given to me to know what I need. Really, that is so frustrating but at the same time reassuring. I suspect that this is a part of my heart I've failed to give Him.

So I'll keep trying. And trusting.

I got about 1/2 way through the book so far (thanks for posting the link!). I'm loving it.

Actually that site has about 4 or 5 of his short stories. I plan to read them all. Here's the link for the home site:
