Be Loved, Children of God


Oh, look and see
what manner of love
our Father has given to us
and called us
into being who we
are meant to be –
the loving Children of God.

The world might not see us this way
if it does not yet know
our God as Love.


But, Beloved, be loved!

For now
we are God’s children.

Not yet have we been shown
what we shall become,
but we can be sure –
when our God of love
is fully known –
we shall see Pure Love
as our God truly is.

1 John 3:1-2
