our body is to be a holy temple of the Spirit
a precious vessel of God’s love;
we are meant to carry God’s light,
to share the light with the world
how would things be different
if this is how we saw ourselves,
our sisters, our brothers,
those we meet on the street
if we saw each living person
as a precious vessel of God’s love;
think about how the world would be
if we were Christ’s hands and feet
