Testify to Love

"...even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me..." Psalms 23

The first time I heard the song "Testify to Love", it was in a television show called "Touched by an Angel". The specific episode was about a little boy that was dying of leukemia. The angels came to help him accomplish some things on a Life List and then brought him to heaven. Ooooh, yes...I was sobbing! The message of the song also struck my heart. I knew then that I wanted to be a person that lived that way...a witness to love even in the moments that were the darkest. Living that out though is much more of a challenge than the desire assumes, but along this journey I can safely say that I know more love today...divine love expressed directly and indirectly...than I did yesterday. The future is bright for more and more and more...


"For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silence
When words are not enough
With every breath I take
We'll give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love"
~Testify to Love by Wynonna Judd

Hey sis--thanks for living this out tonight. Thanks for being comfort, confidante, educator, encourager and so much more for little kibbles tonight--even in the midst of your own grief. You are rockin' awesome!
