to love

John 14:15–31



to love me is
to keep my teaching,
to ask your teacher,
to trust your helper;
abide, rely, reside
in Spirit and in
love

we love you, so
we stay with you;
we listen, answer,
we live and catch
you up in Our life:
remain, reveal, abide, in
love

for instruction I
foreshadowed much,
for mystery is strange
for those who are not ready –
but stay the course and heed
my words, follow them, in
love

to love me is
to keep my words,
the Holy words of God;
it is to be a home
for God and find in God
your own, eternal,
home
