What's Love Got to do With It?



God so LOVED the world - such a familiar passage of scripture. But what does it really mean? In the Amplified Bible John 3:16 reads, "For God so greatly loved and dearly prized the world that He even gave up His only unique Son... God loved me so much that He allowed His Son - who He greatly loved - to hang naked on a cross and die a death like no other. The One who knew no sin, die for me; He took my place so that I might live and have eternal life in Heaven.

God loved me so much, He says in His Word, He will never leave me or forsake me. (Deuteronomy 31:8) Friends and family may leave or forget but God never will. I am reminded of God's love for me during a time in my life when my heart was functioning at less than 30%. He was right there, He never left me. always reminding - "I will never leave you - Trust Me." It was a long road to full recovery but He walked beside me the whole way, leading me to the right doctors and specialists, the right treatments and medications. Today my heart function is normal and healthy - Praise God!

God's plans for those who love Him are far beyond anything we can ever imagine. We love because God first loved us.

God is there for you and me, He is always there - He never leaves us. Open up your heart and let Him in, all the way - don't hold back. God's love never fails - never fades out or becomes obsolete or comes to an end. 1 Cor 13:8 (Amp) His love for us will never be shaken.

Travel Adventures 2023

Travel Adventures 2023 – So many places to go!   This year my husband and I traveled to Reno, Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park. I took lots of pictures but could only choose a few for this blog. I’ve included a little information about each location we visited, along with a few pictures. Enjoy! Reno is a city in the northwest section of the U.S. state of Nevada, along the Nevada-California border, about 22 miles (35 km) north from Lake Tahoe, known as "The Biggest Little City in the World". Known for its casino and tourism industry. We stayed at the Nugget Casino & Resort...and no, I did not put any money in the slot machines!!! :-) What's a vacation with shopping - the  Outlets at Legends  proved to be more than shopping. Then off to  Virginia City.   Lake Tahoe is located on the border of California and Nevada. About two-thirds of the lake is in California, with about one-third extending into Nevada at the north and south ends of the lake, and the entire

Happy Labor Day!

  Labor Day is an annual celebration of the social and economic achievements of American workers. It is a federal holiday in the United States celebrated on the first Monday in September to honor and recognize the American labor movement and the works and contributions of laborers to the development and achievements of the United States.
