Is love enough?

OK, Mike here’s the hat tip to you!

Mike found an interesting post written by Chris Elrod. The original post is called ‘Love doesn’t win‘. In that post he examines the problem of love when it wanes, what do you have left? What is there left to stand on?

Have a read of it and see what you think….

Wow, I think this may be my shortest post to date! I’m impressed, even if I do say so myself…..

I went and read the article and after doing so I couldn’t agree more with Elrod. Love without truth is not love at all. ~Jen

About me:

Hiya... this is just a little blurb about why this blog exists. Living journey is pretty much a personal blog with emphasis on religion, culture, politics with a bit of personal thrown in.

It's about me living a journey as a Christian woman, wife, mother of three and one Grandson. Hence the name "living journey"

I hope you enjoy my blog as much as I enjoy posting on it.
