Glory

How glorious is Love ?

How magnificent it's depth ? 

How bright are it's visions ?

How true are it's directions ?

What can compare to it's shear delight ?

Where walking in it's sight

gives clarity to every living thing .

How bold are it's promises ?

It's paths hold wonder 

for every step taken upon it.

Vibrancy is it's assignation.

It beacons the heart ,

and whispers treasures in it's future.

It speaks of grand designs 

and builds it's dreams

into realities here to fore unknown.

In it the soul with happiness is filled .

Men have penned it's words

sang it's songs

and dreamed it's dreams .

It is desired above all other things . 

It's breadth is exquisite 

and vast are the many who

would sell all , to possess it

only to find it cannot be purchased .

It is a gift given freely 

it cannot be coerced 

No building can house it 

You cannot cage it 

It has no chains that can bind it

no prison can hold it , 

but within are  the floodgates of 

of heaven that waters all of life .

It is a fire that burns

all lies to ash

that purifies all intentions

and refines , polishes , and reflects truth .

Men have sought it's face

in every crack of his existence .

Men have apprenticed at it's feet

journey-manned in it's instruction

but few have mastered it 

and certainly only one has become it's Grand-Master .

But we run to reach for it's crown

we strive to bow our wills before it

to learn it  , receive it

then release it and set it free .

This the Rulers of this world 

would steal if they could  !

1 John 4

16 And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.

God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. 17 This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. 18 There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.

19 We love because he first loved us. 20 Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen,cannot love God, whom they have not seen. 21 And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister.
