God Is Love - Bluidkiti's Alcohol and Drug Addictions Recovery Help/Support Forums

Famous preacher C.H. Spurgeon told the story of a pastor
who was out for a walk in the countryside when he stopped
by a farmhouse for a drink of water. As he sipped from his
glass, he struck up a conversation with the old farmer who
lived there.

As they spoke, the pastor noticed that the farmer's barn
had a weathervane on it that was spinning around in the
wind, which was picking up. On the weathervane the words
"God is Love" were engraved.

The pastor turned to the farmer and said, "I have to say
I don't think that's a very good way to talk about God's
love. Are you saying His love is wishy-washy and changes,
depending on which way the wind blows?"

"Not at all," replied the farmer. "That weathervane is
saying, 'No matter which way the wind blows, God is Love'."
