Acts
3:11-26. Luke 24:35-48
I am your Gospel and the
Father's peace and Joy.
Listen to the word I speak
at your heart's centre.
For I am the Father's Word
and His Incarnate Love.
Follow where I lead and
you will receive and do
all that the Father wills
in you and, through you,
in community.
All life is one for the
faithfully committed in
Our love, and it is meaningful
and full of blessing. All
who wilfully persist in
sin and selfishness cut
themselves off from grace
which is the Father's love
in action: so do they spiritually
suffocate without Our gift
of life and unless they
turn they lose the light
which is their natural endowment
from the beginning.
For am I not the true light,
lighting every child who
comes in to the world? Yet
all are free to accept Our
love and blessing or to
refuse it . Such is love's
challenge and reward but
its judgment too.
But all the faithfully
committed in Our love are
enabled and empowered to
glorify the Father and to
serve Him and their fellowmen.
Such is their joy and their
reward in their faithfulness
and self-giving
Sing Alleluia and rejoice!
