Thoughts from the Country: Love Like Crazy

Copyright 2012: singeronthesand

Trust steadily in God, hope unswervingly, 
love extravagantly.
And the best of the three is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13

As I was driving home from work yesterday, one of my favorite country songs came on the radio.  It talks about two situations that seemed "crazy" at the time, but proved to be sound and true:  a young couple who get married, raise six children on a wing and a prayer, and are still together 58 years later; or the man who quit his secure job to follow his dream, ignoring the scoffing of friends, and ending up with both his dream and financial success.  It is the refrain of the song, however, that speaks to my heart.  I hope these words speak to your heart as well.

Be a best friend, tell the truth,
And overuse, "I love you." 
Go to work, do your best,
Don't outsmart your common sense.
Never let your prayin' knees get lazy
and love like crazy. 
~Lee Brice
