The World Turns and God Is Love


The World Turns and God Is Love

An old lady cuts flowers for her friend, What if the pills make her worse? Dads walk their kids to school, Talking about play dates and spacemen, The world turns and God is love.

Movie stars sip drinks, In a show of strength for poor people, There’s soldiers in Afghanistan, While their families strain for news, The world turns and God is love.

People write books about God, God Does, God Does Not, A Well Known Church Man Falls, Someone prays, someone rants, The world turns and God is love.

People google Loneliness, Have friends over to watch the game, Get involved or chicken out, Vote for change or Party, The world turns and God is love.

In every breath, in every death, In every place, in every space, In every light, in every night, In every dream, there unseen, The world turns and God is love.

A Blessing For You

“For this reason I kneel before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and on earth derives its name. I pray that out of his glorious riches he may strengthen you with power through his Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.

And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen.” Ephesians 3:14-21, NIV
