THE FIRST COMMANDMENT

Gloria Clements

Dear Father-Mother God!
So long
I longed to help in human ways, and
kind deeds often filled my days,
but weariness seemed to stifle me
until I learned to love God more.

Loving God as Father-Mother,
I see everyone as
brother,
each of us as God's dear son.
He maintains us every one—
God loves us all!
God loves me!
Equally! I see!
