Known As a Family

One way to celebrate as a family
begins with everyone’s availability;
a reality to fulfill, a joy to keep
that enables one to take part
and be present with everybody.

It’s interesting to see and 
be part of their identity,
a family member, a sibling soul 
or a companion in a journey.

Engaging mem’ries draw –
the heartstring of love, humor
commitment and intimacy.
a great experience worth mentioning
an interaction suffused with meaning.

In the language that’s clear,
open, sincere and warm,
relationship sets the tone for everything
its interconnectedness that provides undestanding
as a common belief and a pillar
to God’s covenant of faith.

With the promptings of God’s spirit within,
generate the message to be shared
a word to live, a revelation to uphold
that a family is God’s reflection of the Trinity.

No wonder why relationship matters
in every context or sharing of truth
it’s God’s gift that grows deeper in faith
it’s God’s gift that brings unity to worship.
