Commanded To Love


My care for people

Will never cease to exist.

My sense of patience 

Will complete me until the day I die.

 

Children have my heart,

Every one of them.

The sweet and innocent,

The loud and obnoxious,

The hateful and crude,

All deserve love.

 

Even the special ones 

Whom most do not care to "deal with."

I will take the time to though.

To teach,

To listen,

To love.

Because that is what He calls me to do.
