The love commandment:
Just love to live, live to love
With heart, soul, mind, strength

inexhaustible:
what may have been said and done,
regrets? hope in God!

Treasured, handed on
Ways of God’s love and mercy
Christ fulfilled, not failed

Mercy, Lord, mercy
Yes, seventy-seven times
forgiven, forgive

Himself unwelcomed
Christ welcomes all ceaselessly
come, be healed, be free

Spring cleaning is on
How about my heart and soul
The Spirit’s temple?
Mepkin Daily Word
Prodigal Father,
with wayward, resentful sons,
welcomes and calls home...

with rejections, hurts
do Spiritual composting
so be life-giving
Mepkin Daily Word
Share in the Lord’s cup
Serve, not served, even suffer
Live life to the full

Be Christ in the world
Be good and help those in need
In humility
