Do everything with love
(1 Corinthians 16:14; NLT).
1. Face all you feel with love:
Grief, anger, shame, pain, fear.
Share everything with God,
For he is always near.
2. Observe your thoughts with love:
Hate, envy, judgement, pride.
Confess them all to God,
Who will not blame, or chide.
3. Speak every word with love:
Don’t mock, abuse, or lie.
Admit your sins to God,
Who hears our victims cry.
4. Do everything with love:
This principle is clear;
Just ask the Father’s help,
For he is always here.
