THE STIMULUS OF LOVE
Mark 13:31-37
Love is keen. No eyes so sharply alert as love’s eyes; no brain so wide-awake as the brain stimulated by love. It’s only when the heart’s aflame with a tender love that the mind and ear and eye and hand are at their best. When it’s a dear friend you’re watching for, then all the life is on tiptoe. It isn’t simply watching; it’s watching for him! And the watching makes sooner the day of the coming.
