LOVE

You know,
 The best way to live
Is to live by the  golden rule
''Love God and then your neighbor
But until you learn to, you can't.

Love is received,
Then its learnt and practiced
Because,its the opposite of the human nature to love

As God shows us love
We are to gladly receive it.
Next, we watch his daily acts of love,
We search the scriptures for past love displays,
And we see that love isn't an abstract concept
But a personality that received its name

As we get enlightened,
We strengthen this knowledge by reciprocating,
First to He who has taught us
And then, to those we claim don't deserve it

 Loving you neighbor,
Is another sweet one
With this straightforward hint
''Just the way you like it,
treat this person same.''

Do remember to keep your mind in check;
As you put on a balance,
what you deserve and how much love
God keeps releasing your way.
Just so you don't think you've given so much

Barrister Paul would say;
''To please God, you've got work to do''
''But God works in us and through us for his very pleasure''
