That we would be His
disciples
not judging our neighbors,
offering love, mercy,
even to the stranger,
in the name of our Lord.
That we would be humble
gracious to our sister,
our brothers
to all those we meet;
that our name would be
written
written in God’s Book of Love,
Messengers ever
being light, salt in the
world;
witnesses here
God’s holy people
here on this earth.
Going in His name
the One who was sent;
going as the Spirit sends
us
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.”
