Love Is Best When It Is Blind 10/3/2025

 Good Morning,

The chair at my desk is just too comfortable this morning.  I am saluting this day with a hot cup of Door County Pumpkin Spice Coffee and it is time to write. The fall wild flowers just began to pop, but they are a sign that winter is around the corner.

1 Peter 4:8  NKJV And above all things have a fervent love for one another, for "will cover a multitude of sins."

Proverbs 10:12 NKJV Hatred stirs up strife, but love covers all sins. 

Love is best when it is blind is a very true statement. Imagine living with a spouse who questions every little thing you do, corrects your statements, and complains to you about the most trivial things. We all have our faults and I have my share. But if my wife were to be correcting me or complaining as to how I pack the dish washer and then how I drive, it would drive me crazy and our marriage would not be sailing on an even keel. 

Now if I were to be drinking from the milk carton, I could see my wife saying something and I probably should stop. But not placing the bottle of cinnamon in line right next to the nut meg would definitely not be worth mentioning. That is just the time when your love should become blind and just let it go. We can nit pick to the point to where it is annoying and we cause our target to start looking for ways to retaliate. This totally disrupts the harmony intended for the relationship. 

To quote a lyric from the movie Frozen "Let it go, let it go, let it go." True love" is blind to the small things and is best practiced unselfishly and regularly.

Have a great day!!! 

Marty
