1John 5:14-21; Psalm 149:1-6,9; John 3:22-3-

according
to God’s will
we ask
and receive
what is already ours
love
joy
peace
patience
faith
self-control
gentleness
kindness
goodness
in our Life
in his Truth
and Holy Spirit
we sing
and praise
and dance
with joy
for the Love
we have found

Do you see that what you ask for you have?

1John 5: 5-13; Psalm 147:12-20; Luke 5:12-16

one
with Him
we see
eternal Life
Spirit of God
beloved
of All
it is God’s will
to heal
and bring Life
and Love
to us

Do you withdraw to deserted places to pray with Him?

1John 4:19-5:4; Psalm 72: 1-2, 14-17; Luke 4: 14-22

lead
by the power
of the Holy Spirit
He knew
who He was
child of God
bring us
liberty
sight
and freedom
through God’s love
given to all
freely
in justice
we embrace
His commands
as precious wisdom
light
in our darkness
and life giving word

What do you hear in his commandments of love?

1John 4:11-18; Psalm 72: 1-2,10,12-13; Mark 6:45-52

He comes
across the waters
of our raging seas
bring calm
in a perfect love
that drives out
the fears
of our hardened hearts
saving
the poor
and the afflicted
through the work
of God’s hand
in us

Do you believe that perfect love drives out fear?
What is perfect love?

1John 4:7-10; Psalm 72:1-2,3-4,7-8; Mark 6:34-44

Presence
of love
in a deserted place
our poverty
and need
exposed
we are seen
in our hunger
and provided
food
by His blessing
dividing
sharing
all that we have
we are nourished
with Love

Are you nourished by God’s presence and love?

1John 3:22-4:6; Psalm 2:7-8,10-12; Matthew 4:12-17, 23-25

He stands
before us
as Light
in our dark places
healing
teaching
proclaiming
a Gospel
of Love
here for All
who would hear
and see
their Oneness
in God
in Holy Spirit
undivided
we receive
whatever we ask for
in Love

Is God light in your darkness?
Do you receive whatever you ask for in Love?

Isaiah 60: 1-6; Psalm 72: 1-2, 7-13; Eph 3.2-6; Matt 2. 1;12

his star
is rising
seen by hearts
who seek
and travel
to find
their answer
in light
and love
we gather
and become
radiant
at what we see
justice
flowering
profound
peace
as our
cries are heard
the afflicted
are rescued
the lives
of the poor
saved
as we open
our treasures
and present
our gifts
to Him

What star do you follow?
Are you radiant with what you see?
Have you poured out your treasure?

1John 2:22-28; Psalm 98:1-4; John 1:19-28

a voice
crying out
in the desert
knowing
who he is
preparing the way
for the one to come
as Truth
to a world
of deception
lies
suffering
and death
that we might see
who we are
and be saved
He comes
as teacher and friend
food and Spirit
advocate
of all that is Good
and Love
and Peace
He has anointed us
with His eternal Word

Do you know who you are?
How do you serve God’s love?

Numbers 6:22-27

May the Lord
bless you
and keep you.
May the Lord
let his face
shine upon you
and be gracious to you
May the Lord
look upon you kindly
and give you peace.

Are you God’s peace?

1John 2:18-21; Psalm 96:1-2, 11-13; John 1:1-18

in the beginning
came a Word
a word
of Light
en-fleshed
with Love
that we may be Grace
to one another

yet deprived
in some way
we feel separate
from Truth
and lose our way
in the world’s darkness
shadows
and delusion
it is the last hour
so many anti-Christs
and anti-life
among us

yet not by our choice
or decision
but by the Light of Truth
we remain
and see Glory
with the heavens
and earth
the forest and the seas
and rejoice
with our song of Joy

Where do you see God’s glory?
Do you sing a song of Joy?
