Recipe For a Life of Love

Wake up every day, give thanks to the Lord An expression of gratitude you can surely afford Then take a minute, just a minute, to contemplate Is there anyone on this Earth whom I think that I hate If so, purge that hate from your heart; it has no place there Consign it to ashes; of its return - please beware After that one more minute - OK - maybe two Infuse your heart with love for every person you knew and now know... at home, at school, at work, on the street Vow to receive with good cheer every new face you meet Manifest the image of God; He's yours to glorify Fill your heart with pure love ~ in abundant supply
