written in the book of love

That we would be His disciples
not judging our neighbors
offering love
in the name of our Lord
that we would be humble
gracious to our sister, our brothers
that our name would be written
written in God’s book of love
messengers ever
witnesses here
God’s holy people
here on this earth
Going in His name
the one who was sent
commissioned and anoint
to the ends of the earth

“my 'heart' sinks with your continued association with the United Methodist church. God's Word clearly says that the Lord’s command is no females are allowed to be leaders. 1 Cor. 14:33-38; 1 Tim 2:12-3:12. Violating God's Word is not a recommended path to follow.”
