BUT WE CAN STILL LOVE THEM

 4042

(A short sermon excerpt from the script of "A River Runs Through It")

                   

Each one of us here today will,

at one time in our lives...



   

                   

look upon a loved one who is in need

and ask the same question.



   

                   

"We are willing to help, Lord...



   

                   

but what, if anything, is needed?"



   

                   

It is true we can seldom help

those closest to us.



   

                   

Either we don't know what part

of ourselves to give...



   

                   

or more often than not,

the part we have to give...



   

                   

is not wanted.



   

                   

And so it is those we live with

and should know who elude us...



   

                   

but we can still love them.



   

                   

We can love completely...



   

                   

without complete understanding.
