By now we all understand the joys and difficulties that come with being home in quarantine with you family. Some days are a joy we are able to experience the little things that we take for advantage or never even noticed before. Our families should be our everything.
On the flip side "OH MY!"
Being with the same people day in and day out is aggravating. Not having the alone time that has been a life style routine, having it taking from you over night and not being able to fight back in any way. The only way to fight back is by killing them with kindness, showing love and appreciation in hopes that they will see that their actions only bring frustration to your life.
Jesus invites us into His love as long as we surrender to Him as our Lord and savior. Yes, He is going to love us even if we do not surrender and except Him. The love we will receive will be different of course. The more we surrender our self to the Lord the more we begin to live. Life becomes abundant.
People often live for selfish gain, to win, own, control, to be in charge, those kind of things. That is not how it works when you surrender to the way Jesus wants us to life. He wants us to life is by expressing love. The way I live is by setting goals that are direct indication of bettering one home, community, self and letting Jesus take care of the details in between.
The truth is no one will ever live the way Jesus did. But there is no reason why any one should not rely on His strength, His wisdom, and guidance. Jesus wants everyone to lay there problems at His feet so we are able to walk through our amazing lives without Earthly burdens.

John 15:9-12
9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love.
10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love.
11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
