Love is an Action - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

Even where we do not comprehend
the extent of God’s love
the words of scripture
all throughout
reminding us, again and again
love is an action
a way of living
offering ourselves
to our creator
and our neighbor
giving of ourselves
that they would sense our love
given unto them

quote attributed to Corrie ten Bloom,
“I have a glove here in my hand. The glove cannot do anything by itself, but when my hand is in it, it can do many things. True, it is not the glove, but my hand in the glove that acts. We are gloves. It is the Holy Spirit in us who is the hand, who does the job. We have to make room for the hand so that every finger is filled.”
