Love chose to be born in a dirty stable Love grew up in a normal Jewish home Love was baptized to fulfill all righteousness Love was led by the Spirit into the wilderness Love picked 12 workaday men to hang out with Love gave sight to the blind, fed the hungry, healed the sick and raised the dead Love went after the woman at the well Love danced at a wedding Love restored the unclean and the broken Love ate with, slept with, did life with those same 12 workaday men for 3 years Love always said yes to his Father Love was completely misunderstood by the mainstream religious of his day Love was spat upon, slapped, and beaten Love was bruised for our transgressions Love was crucified - a criminal’s brutal death Love was forsaken by God the Father Love gave up his spirit Love went into the ground and down to hades to proclaim his finished work Love arose victoriously, having the Father’s seal of approval for his supreme sacrifice Love breathes new life into all who call upon his name Love is alive Love lives in you and me
