Debit and Credit
Owe no man anything but love,
And pay off all your debts;
And when you give, give from the heart,
And all you give, forget.
Be willing just to lend your aid,
To anyone in need.
Don't worry 'bout your recompense,
Or tally your good deeds;
For that just leads to selfish pride,
And generates contention,
And paves the way for much discord,
And clouds the spirit's vision;
But look ahead at all the things,
The Father's done for you,
And all the things He's doing now,
And all that He will do.
Then ask yourself what you can do,
To show appreciation,
For all that you've received, No Charge,
Save love and veneration.
"OWE NO MAN ANYTHING SAVE LOVE, FOR HE WHO LOVES HIS NEIGHBOR HAS FULFILLED THE LAW."
Romans 13:8
"WHATSOEVER YE DO UNTO EVEN THE LEAST OF THY BRETHREN, YE DO IT ALSO UNTO ME." Matthew 25:40
