Lord, I love this beautiful definition of love!
Perhaps because of how it's laid out here,
it occurs to me to use it as a template
for reviewing and assessing how well
my life does or doesn't fit this description...
So, I'm going to replace the word LOVE
with some elements of my existence:
My attitude is...
My political stance is...
My general demeanor is...
My political stance is...
My general demeanor is...
My communication with others is...
My interaction with folks I disagree with is...
My approach to those who've hurt me is...
My approach to those who've hurt me is...
I'm gonna take some time today, Lord,
to do this exercise and take some inventory:
the definition of love counts for little
unless and until it defines how I live...
Amen.
