ORRIN MORRIS: God expresses his love in the flowers of the field

DAME’S ROCKET Hesperis matronalis

I wish there was some way that my words could convey the simple truth that God is love and seeks to express that love in and through every person on earth. That is the “good news” (gospel) that Jesus taught and demonstrated.

So many people live in an environment of hate and deception that they have no frame of reference as to what this love of God means. Others have such a low opinion of their worth that for them to believe that they are loved by God is unbelievable.
