The living Christ is the Christ of Love who is always
generating love
moment by moment
when the church manifests
understanding, tolerance and loving-kindness
Jesus is there

Lord this day
we will gather to worship you
candles will be lit
songs will be sung
prayers will be lifted to heaven
and words from The Word will be read
someone will pontificate
wax eloquent
ooze with profundity (that would be me J ha!)
but Lord
for you to truly be present
and more
for us to walk forth from
that nice little safe container
we call a sanctuary…..
and make you present to the world
we must be people
open to your presence
accepting of your good seeds of
understanding, tolerance and loving-kindness
we must be willing to nurture those seeds
in each moment
we must be willing to make faith
a way of life
When you said “I am the way”
You meant your life was “the way”
a template for living
may we accept you as The Way
by living your way
for in that way
we truly
worship
