IMPARTIAL LOVE

Esther M. Scheck Peterson

What is love?
Love is not mere personal affection for some,
and rejection of those we don't choose
to embrace;

True love is
the irresistible desire to bless
all—yes, the entire, the whole
human race.

"God is love,"
the Scriptures say; and He made man, His child,
that way, reflecting freely Love's
boundless grace.

A gracious,
Godlike man knows he can and does embrace
impartially all mankind—in
every place.

Esther M. Scheck Peterson
