Bearing God’s Blessings - Poem by Raymond A. Foss

We, the believes, members of the body
the church, the living embodiment
the bride of Christ
We are to bear God’s blessings
the message of love, of hope
to a struggling, troubled world
We entered into our worship
our sharing of thanksgiving together
remembering God is the source
our life, our bounty, our hope
Out into the world, God’s messengers
bringing Christ, love incarnate
to our broken world
