God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him might not perish but might have eternal life.
(Lk 13:3)

Covenant

My child

I know
it is
difficult
to love

I know
it is
difficult

to forgive

I know
it is
difficult

to suffer

but look
I am taking
away your heart

and in
its
place

I am putting
my
heart

now I
will be
suffering

now I
will be
forgiving

now I
will be
loving

in you
my
heart is

beating in you

J. Janda
