Inspirational Thoughts on Love and Friendship

Chapter One

Scatter your seeds of kindness All enriching as you go- Leave them. Trust the Harvest Giver; He will make each seed grow. So until the happy end Your life shall never lack a friend.

Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving. He covers the sky with clouds; he supplies the earth with rain and makes grass grow on the hills. Psalm 147:7-8

Your love has given me great joy and encouragement. Philemon 7

He prayeth well who loveth well Both man and bird and beast; He prayeth best who loveth best All things both great and small; For the dear God who loveth us, He made and loveth all. Samuel Taylor Coleridge

To love abundantly is to live abundantly, and to love forever is to live forever.

No love, no friendship can cross the path of our destiny without leaving some mark on it forever. Francois Mauriac

A good deed is never lost; he who sows courtesy reaps friendship, and he who plants kindness gathers love. St. Basil

Drop a word of cheer and kindness: just a flash and it is gone; But there's half-a-hundred ripples circling on and on, Bearing hope and joy and comfort on each splashing, dashing wave. Till you wouldn't believe the volume of the one kind word you gave. James W. Foley

The river of Thy grace is flowing free, We launch upon its depths to sail to Thee; In the ocean of Thy love we soon shall be, We are sailing to eternity. Paul Rader

I love you, Not only for what you are, But for what I am when I am with you.

I love you, Not only for what You have made of yourself, But for what you are making of me.

You have done it Without a touch Without a word Without a sign. You have done it By being yourself. Perhaps that is what Being a friend means, after all. Roy Croft

Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 1 John 4:11
