Ephesians 4:1 – KJV – “I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called.” I sought Jesus And He listened I prayed with thanksgiving And He whispered “Love is the gift… Love is the answer… Love is the hope… The joy and inspiration! We are called to love Love without conditions Love with all our hearts Love with all our spirits We are called to love Love with the same love we’ve been given By the One who brings us into the light Destroying the darkness of pain and strife Coloring our dreams in hues of insight We are called to give our love To those who need it the most The poor, pained and grieved Those who need to be lifted up Given a kind word, a gentle thought A sincere inspiration From the heart I sought the Lord And He breathed hope on my thoughts Blessed me with His inspirations Left my soul without any depression Raised my hopes and fulfilled my yearnings With love that is God breathed Love that is full of wonder Love that brings sweet peace Love that awakens my life To be filled with a faith that abides Reminding me why I am called… To a love that only God creates A love that is a fire filled with grace A love that is alive and amazes It is the Love that penetrates the soul With a joy from God who I know Is the answer to every prayer The key to every worry or fear The One who leads us to the awareness That He is with us… Forever, always, everywhere – He’s there! Love lives!

Gina, I must admit that I rarely read what I call "religious" poems, but I found this poem to be especially meaningful and refreshing to my spirit. Thanks so much.

The greatest calling - to love..called by the one who loved us first to go out and love even the unlovable.
