1 John 3:14-18 Matthew 15:12-16
All born into the Heavenly
Father’s world are
children of His love, called
to love Him and seek His
will in all things. Those
who are faithful in love
and in self-giving are given
to serve Him and their brothers
and sisters near and far
through the grace and power
of Love’s indwelling
and the light and guiding
of Our Holy Spirit.
All responsive to the Father’s
will and loving purpose
are likewise called to follow
in the steps of the Son
of Man who gave His life
as a ransom for many and
reigns in the faithful and
the true of heart in time
and through eternity. The
cost no-one can ever fully
know but many there have
been who have chosen death
in and through their faithful
following: they glorify
the Father in their faithfulness,
lovingly honour the Son
and shine as lights in their
several generations
Respond to and in the Father’s
love according to the Father’s
will and loving purpose
and the light and guiding
of Our Holy Spirit. Follow
in the steps of the Son
of Man in faith and trust
and absolute self-giving.
