thrive

i think i live more through the breath of others, than the breath of myself.

we thrive off eachother. my breath is not merely donated by the atmosphere, but rather the people and places inhabiting it.

and the simple realization of the impact of people in one's life, is enough to make me think. and all that thinking leads be back to my scripture for the year: first john 3:18 dear children, let us
not love with words or tongue but with actions and in truth.

we are to surround the needy in every sense of the word[s]. the needy: the poor, the sick. the broken-hearted, the dying. the outcasts and the heavy laden. and we must surround them with support. with care. with prayer, touch, help, blessings, and love.

we shall lay our strength down for such as these. we will show Christ in us by being the lovers he desires us to be.
