Prayer List
Love is the touch of intangible joy;
love is the force that no fear can destroy;
love is the goodness we gladly applaud:
God is where love is, for love is of God.
Love is the lilt in a lingering voice;
love is the hope that can make us rejoice;
love is the cure for the frightened and flawed:
God is where love is, for love is of God.
Love is the light in the tunnel of pain;
love is the will to be whole once again;
love is the trust of a friend on the road:
God is where love is, for love is of God.
Love is the Maker, and Spirit, and Son;
love is the kin-dom their will has begun;
love is the pathway the saints all have trod:
God is where love is, for love is of God.
~ Love is the Touch, by Alison M. Robertson
