Ascended Love

Lord, grant that I may attain unto Thy Perfect Love:

For only this Love can cast out all Fear;

Only this Love is able and willing to deny Self for friends.

Lord, grant that I may desire to give away nothing but Love:

For only Love given can be a reason for joy in living;

Only this Love is happy as it releases Its own wants.

Lord, grant that I may strive to gain Thine Eternal Love:

For only this Love instilled within can bear with trials;

Only this Love is willing and able to wait for a harvest.

 Lord, grant that I may ever learn and grow in Thy Love:

For only this Love can, as It ascends out of a shattered Vessel, live;

And, only thru this Ascended Love can the broken vessel regain wholeness.
