LOVE IS ALL WE HAVE LEFT

Nothing to keep us from where we should be
For I know that nothing can keep us from the love of God. Death cannot! Life cannot! Angels cannot! Leaders cannot! Any other power cannot! Hard things now or in the future cannot! Romans 8:38 NLV
I wanted the world but you knew better ​
Jesus: "What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul?" Mark 8:36 NIV see also Matthew 16:26 & Luke 9:25
 
The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. Luke 4:5 NIV
I wanted the world but you knew better 
And that all we have is immortality
The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever. 1 John 2:17 NIV

If I... do not have love, I am nothing. 1 Corinthians 13:2 NIV

And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. Luke 2:7 KJV

While they were there, the time came for the baby to be born, and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them. Luke 2:7 KJV
Now you're at the other end of the telescope
Seven billion stars in her eyes
So many stars
So many ways of seeing

Love and love is all we have left
The only thing that can be kept
For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 1 Timothy 6:7 NIV
