Life

Infinite Love offers the fullness ofChrist's cup,which we gratefully receive asbaptism, inspiration,spiritual understanding,blessed transformation,showing that peace and strength aboundAs Truth lifts up—And man in eternal LifeIs found.

My yearning to serve

Oh, I have felt His divine presencefilling the stillness of a morning,freshly compelling me to serve Him solely;

Giving action to thought

Progress:forbids a backward glance,impels a forward thrust,denies a sense of chance,demands an active trust.

There is no impasse

So often we outline and defineHow we wish an outcome to unfold.

Patience

Not a grim wait,nor passive resignation,discouraged, anxious,questioning"when?

Nurse's song

Let me praise Love's infinite care for man, byrespecting, encouraging, and cherishing my brother—heart-shouting his spiritual goodness!
