Sermons On The Gospel Readings
How does one describe love for another person? A Scotsman would say, "Love is an outward inexpressability of an inward all overishness." A teenager might call love "an itching in your heart that you can't scratch." A bride-to-be will likely say that "love is a feeling that you feel when you feel that you're feeling a feeling you've never felt before." And if you ask the poet Carl Sandburg he will tell you that love is "a personal sweat." We could go on passing the microphone around allowing folk singers, politicians, teachers, and housewives to have their say. But there is not enough time.
