Oratio: An Invitation

Love is an invitation
not a demand
the Lord calls you
but you are free
not to answer
He makes no one
choose Him
He makes no one
choose heaven
love is a choice
heaven is a choice
Christ is a choice
in every moment
you are free to choose
how you spend your freedom
how you spend eternity

~Robert Van Valkenburgh

How does recognizing love as an invitation rather than a demand influence the way we make choices in our spiritual lives and relationships?
