Love is the Message – v2

The only Word for God, Love,

the reason He came to earth

walking as a man

to give us eternal life

Love is the message

the only commandment of God

all the rest layers

expanding on that Word

Coming to earth to save us

not to condemn us for our sin

redeemed by His sacrifice

saved by His grace alone

We are to be messengers

not of hate but Love

bringing others the blessed Good News

Jesus came for us.

A Message for Us All

Each of us able to receive

a message for us all

given to us by Christ

to share with the whole world

Filled with the Spirit

infused with God’s grace

able through him to share

the joy of his endless love

“Abundant God, we thank you for the jars of our lives

that are constantly being filled. We offer our gifts to you,

Through our gifts, may we do likewise.

In the name of Christ the Comforter, we pray. Amen”
