I ask,
Two worlds,
one material
one spiritual;
two natures,
one human
one divine.
Can I have both?
The world is
so tempting.
My new hat,
so pretty;
my ring,
so shiny.
The party is tomorrow
can I refuse?
The Christ answers,
“The world is for living,
the Spirit is for loving.
Live fully,
Love fully
and you will know both."
— Donna F. Fletcher
