He just finished securing the door for the night with four locks, two deadbolts, and a chain latch. Later he noticed a small white envelope stuck beneath the door. On the envelope was a large sticker in the shape of a heart. It was a Valentine. Love finds a way.<\/p>\n<p>Only love can change a person\u2019s heart. The Russian author Dostoevsky, in his book The Brothers Karamazov, tells the story of a hardened cynic, Ivan, and his resistance to the love of the Lord. On one occasion his brother Alyosha, a man of deep faith who was confounded by his brother\u2019s resistance, leans over and kisses Ivan. This simple act of love burned into Ivan\u2019s heart.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps you have a friend who is resisting the Lord&#8217;s  love. Show His love to him or her, just as the Lord showed love to us when He brought salvation into the world through Jesus. Shower upon others the kind of love described in 1 Corinthians 13 &#8211; a love that is patient, kind, humble, and unselfish. &#8211;  Daily Bread. <\/p>\n<p>God&#8217;s Love Finds a Way &#8211; Harvest Church &#8211; <\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"474\" height=\"267\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5jCN-g9TXHY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span> <\/p>\n<p>Real love is a gift from the Lord that we can keep on giving.<\/p>\n<p>Dear Lord, Teach me to love as You love, and let the whole world know that Jesus Christ lives in my heart, His glorious light to shine. &#8211; Brandt. <\/p>\n<p>The Lord pours His love into our hearts to flow out to others. <\/p>\n<p>AMEN. <\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blog.peacelcmc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_0944.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.peacelcmc.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/02\/IMG_0944.jpg\" alt=\"(null)\" class=\"alignnone size-full\"><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Years ago I saw a cartoon that depicted a disgruntled, elderly gentleman standing in rumpled pajamas and robe at his apartment door.
