Love

Thou who wast rich beyond all splendor
All for love's sake becamest poor.

Newsflash: I am much more often like the man who prays, dressed in his righteous robes, "I thank God that I am a good man, not like that man over there!" than I am like Jesus, who, though undeniably above us, did not look down upon us in frustration or disgust, but came and joined us.

Thou who wast God beyond all praising
All for love's sake becamest man.

With Amy Carmichael, I say, "I know nothing of Calvary love."
