At the center of things

is gift.

It is sacrilege to turn

gift into obligation.

That is why in prayer

God commands

but does not coerce.

If anyone could coerce

God could;

If anyone should coerce

But God doesn’t.

 

God’s gift to us is

the gift of response

a mirror image of

God’s own freely chosen

Love.
