Augustine of Hippo
1 John 4:7-16. Matt. 23:8-12
Love is the Father's Presence
in His world. It may be
seen and known in all creation.
Let love so fill your heart
and mind that you may know
and understand the power
of Love's Indwelling in
the Father's world: this
takes a lifetime of obedience
and faithfulness in following
in the way We lead and guide
Let love so fill your heart
and mind that you become
Our love to others. Pray
to understand the power
of this love to save and
sanctify and to build the
one and many into the fabric
of the Father's Kingdom
of eternal life. And pray
that you begin to know and
understand the cost of vicarious
love and be strong when
you are called and privileged
to share it in humility
and self-giving.
