answer moment

how we answer
depends upon which question we hear

until and unless we hear God asking
do you know I love you

we are unable to answer Jesus question
do you love Me

we cannot give what we have not received

only once we receive the love of God
can we give that love back to Jesus

for God's love is perfect
and Jesus deserves nothing less

if we only offer Jesus our imperfect love
this second love
that has been modeled for us
by parents, friends,
well
that is truly sad ...........

that is a religious love
from an anorexic body

words coming from a mouth
that has lost its taste for manna
bread still warm from the oven of intimacy
