for the love of God...(1)


"Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples" Jesus. John 13:35 (PM Version)


There is an outcome that's the proof of the ...
perhaps the pudding - when it's eaten up!
There is an output of near any tree,
when fruiting body of some kind erupts,

that helps determine, more or less, quite well,
the kind of tree it is, it helps to tell.
And there's an outcome which when seen in midst
of outcasts from society, can twist

about our expectations and show off
the kind of kingly character in life
that honours well their teacher, well enough,
it somehow does the trick, when they see love!

The kind of love and care that's really true,
that is not crimped and stifled any bit;
that flows to anyone, like me or you,
not conscious of the self, except a lit-

tle, maybe just 'cause it's a self there too.
And Jesus said that if his students had
that kind of thing between them, that would do
the trick to show off what we really had

as motivation, and the riches of
his kind of kingdom, and the way he ruled.
He was determined to display, show off
this quality, that others be not fooled

to thinking that his motivation for
obeying who was over him in truth,
was anything like how he could get more.
His love led him to act as God's own  youth!


...but the world must know that I love the Father; that is why I do everything as he commands me. John 14:31 GNB
