What a Way!
What a way to be,
in life!-
Open vessel to receive
the Abba-love of God,
poured out with,
Oh, such lavishness:
Open to return such love
with all the
‘heart and soul and
mind and strength’,-
a daily offering of an ‘overflowing cup’
Open to receive/embrace a
world of people coming
to my door,-
‘We want to dine at your house, tonight!’
Open to give service to
tired feet and weary
hearts,
with the basin of care and
towel of time spent.
What a way to be,- to go-
in life!
