And a child knows love
Much the same, an adult needs to grow backward to possess understanding
Only knowledge grants us this
Just as Wisdom bores freedom
To know true love is to understand one thing
It is not ours to take
Not ours to give or to receive
The Human spirit does not love unconditionally
And what is conditional cannot be freely given
With it will always come a steep cost
It finds its root in selfishness
This is something love can never be
Because Love gives fully and completely
In sacrifice without desire or need for compensation
The veil of life and law blurs the face of truth for us
The truth of love
Love that is Life
That is Christ
But not for these little ones
Yet the eyes that are able to look upon a child do not create a child
I tell you we must become children again
Reborn through water as it was first from our mothers womb
So then, impossible is it?
No, it is not
This is circumcision of the heart in spiritual baptism
And a new creation is reborn
Still, we need the understanding that sight is not seeing
As you see your son or daughter
So does God see you in much the same way
People, desire to become children again
Children of God
Gain through faith the treasure of wisdom and knowledge hidden in His Son
It has been waiting for you in its forever place
Only with love can you truly love another
So learn this you must
See clearly with unwanted eyes and through willing heart
Though you were once blind you will see again
Through the Spirit
And you can know this through the gift of Him
For only God is love
Learn to love with the love of His Son
To unconditionally be loved so that you may serve others in love
Viewing each member of the body through the eyes of the Son
Seeing all as His children from the gift of His Living Spirit within
Learning to cast away the value of what your eyes desire
The things that trick your heart and steal the wealth of peace
The veil has now been lifted
And your life is now hidden with God in His Son Jesus Christ
Rejoice and laugh children
Joyfully play as you never did in your youth
For it is a new day now
A forever day
And we are never to be alone again


John: We love because He first loved us
