Oratio: God Is Love

God is love
He is the lover
we His beloved
all that is good in us
is of and from this love
when we love
we share in God
expressing and receiving
the Spirit of God in us
to and from
the Spirit of God in others
this sharing of love
is sharing in Christ
who came to us
to teach us
how to be perfect in love
as the Father is perfect love

~Robert Van Valkenburgh
