How Love floods in!

Elizabeth S. Lay

If good were limited—
Enough for just a few—
Our choice might be
To limit all we do.

But when I loose my fears
And let them go—
Convinced God's presence here
Is all I need to know—
How Love floods in!

"Take care of him"— Luke 10:35 . These four words once defined
The rule for all:
A neighbor never ceases to be kind!

No burden harms when heart obeys
Each call—and hands reach to sustain
Earth's wounded. God will not send
An empty cupboard. Oil and meal remain—
And oh! How Love floods in!
