Joyous Giving

Joy overflows
Due to blessings given
All that I have
Love has provided

Heart returns
To the well of giving
Because he first loved me
I will give, and keep giving

Love does not change
Love does not end
Love endures and mercy is given
Love brings my tithes back to the giver.



Thanks to my Preacher(dad) for the inspiraton! Love you!!

Nice poem.... Do you think people should be kind and help the less fortunate because it's the right thing to do? Or because their forced to? A heart beats the same way in any chest...why should it break differently?
