Extravagant Love – 2 – v2

The friends of the man
showing extravagant love
out of their faith in Christ
lifting him up

Risking injury, pain
carrying him to the roof
lowering him down
right in front of Christ

Sharing with their friend
the truth that he could heal
believing enough, going
bringing him to Christ

Christ responding
to their extravagant love
healing him in an instant
causing him to praise God

So much meaning, depth
when we share Christ’s love
carrying our friends, our neighbors
to the very feet of God
