Presence 5: Arts That Inspire Reflection & PrayerSample

Love like that

Graciously, generously, wholeheartedly,

Thoughtfully, thoroughly, tenaciously,

Without compromise;

Through all seasons:

Love like that.

Deeply, consistently, discreetly,

Extravagantly, expansively, unstintingly,

With abandon;

Beyond convenience:

Love like that.

Freely, fervently, knowingly,

Truly, tenderly, patiently,

In simplicity

Not counting the cost:

Love like that.

Boldly, strongly, passionately,

Decisively, obstinately, courageously,

Without fear;

When the stakes are high:

Love like that.

Soundlessly, carefully, unassumingly,

Lightly, readily, sacrificially,

Without pretension;

When unobserved:

Love like that.
