On Generosity Founded

On Generosity Founded
by Michael Doyle

In the communal presence of generosity
The followers of Christ join as one family.
Sharing the love our father has given,
Through evangelism and love, we are driven.

Seeking first His righteousness over our need,
Anxious over nothing, we are to be free from greed.
In prayer and action, we are a conduit living free.
We live the kingdom's way in our giving humility.

Seven springs provide water into the Sea of Galilee.
Like these springs, God's love provides abundantly.
It is this abundance that forgives our debts with mercy.
In turn, we are to forgive the debts of our family.

The life of Peter is an illustration of forgiveness.
The lessons given must be learned to live this.
The world's scarcity set the terms lived in limitation,
But for Jesus, forgiveness was ongoing, not an elimination.

There is no cap for the forgiveness the world needs,
It's a fountain of living by which the soul pleads.
That as long as mercy is needed, it shall be given,
And for all who sin, if asked, they will be forgiven.
