Bask in the Joy of Love

Each blade of grass,
And each hair upon our heads, 
were completed by the Creator.
And God rested on the seventh day.

Like the Creator loved Jesus,
Jesus loved his disciples.
“Remain in my love and keep my commandments,” he said.

Look within. Look at your neighbor.
There is manifest the image of God.
The love of the One brings us joy.

Bask in the joy of the One within and between us.
Praise to the One: to the Creator, the Christ, and the Spirit. Amen.
