Harmony and Justice
I will place my law within them
And write upon their hearts
I will be their God
And they will be my people.
Jeremiah 31:33
Back in our student days
We learned how bills become laws
How ideas
Written pieces of paper make their way through the legislative process to help us live our lives together in community
Laws
Properly written and lived by
Lead to harmony
Ensure justice for all
God’s laws
Found in the Old Testament
Reinforced by the teachings of Jesus
Are written on the hearts of Go’s faithful
Lead us to recognize
The central place of God in our life
The instiller of laws that have their foundation in the greatest of all God’s commandments
We must love God
Love one another
It is love that is written in our hearts
Love that leads to many harmony
And justice for all
