Love

“This is my commandment, that you love one another.”

So many rules

So many laws

So many directions

So much software

And apps

And programs

And forms to fill out

And Jesus made it so simple

Love.

Some days I forget 

That it's all about love

Some days

I'm satisfied

Just keeping the rules

Filling out the forms

Sticking with the program

And suddenly

My eyes open

And I see an opportunity 

To love, I mean to really love

To go the extra mile 

Lord help me!

I know there's rules to keep

But help me make loving others 

Number one on my agenda

Help me see the opportunities 

I have today to truly

Love.
