On advent, on love

When I think of love, and what I would want little Julianne to know about love, it would be that love seeks to reconcile and believes in redemption. 

Love works through the tough. It doesn’t give up. 

There will be times where seeking reconciliation seems impossible or hurts. It’s okay to take a break. It’s okay to rest. 

But after you’ve rested, keep going. Keep seeking reconciliation. 

You will be better for it. 

We are all redeemable.
