Amen Amanda! the BEST one reminded me of the song we sang in 1995 World Youth day ... "for God so loved the world,He gave us His only son, Jesus Christ our saviour, His most precious one. He has sent us a message of LOVE, and asks those who hear, to bring the message to everyone in a voice loud and clear... " THANKS For sending the message and not forgetting the GREATEST LOVE THE WORLD has known this Valentines day! CHEERS!
ReplyDeleteA WONDERFUL post, Amanda! You're right about the greatest love of all. And your other quotations are some of my favorites, too, particularly the Winnie the Pooh reference and the Tennyson.
ReplyDeleteI hold it true whate'er befall
I feel it when I sorrow most
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.
And I love the fact that there's someone in blogland besides me who likes Tennyson! :)
