BRINGING GOOD & LOVE INTO THE WORLD
BRINGING GOOD AND LOVE
INTO THE WORLD
Good is good-and it
Should NEVER be wasted
And when it is UNITED
With the LOVE of God and Christ
EVERY kind word-every good action-
Every compassionate thought BRINGS LOVE
Into the world
And CHANGES the world
For the better-
ESPECIALLY if it is united
With the LOVE of God and Christ
“For you
Shall eat the fruit
Of your handiwork
BLESSED shall you be
And FAVORED” Psalm 128:2
OUR JOB
Is to bring MORE
Good and love into the world
Even though we may not see
Concrete results-
For our efforts
You will bring FRUIT-
Good fruit into the world
And we will be KNOWN
For our fruit
LOOK at Jesus-look at ALL
The great people and saints
That followed him
NOT to mention cities-culture-
Music and art,etc.,
What about our fruit?
WHERE does our fruit live?
Where does our fruit grow?
“That person
IS like a tree planted
By streams of water
Which yields its fruit
In season-
And whose leaf
Does not wither-
Whatever they do PROSPERS” Psalm 1:3
“A shoot-will come up
From the stump of Jesse
From its roots
A BRANCH will bear fruit” Isaiah 11:1
And isn't that
The way that it IS
If we are rooted
IN LOVE
What else can we bring
But GOODNESS AND LOVE?
“You did not choose me
BUT I chose you-and-
Appointed you
So that you might go
And BEAR FRUIT-
Fruit that will LAST
And so
That whatever you ASK
In my name
The Father will give you
This is my command:
LOVE EACH OTHER” John 15:16-17
We will FACE tough challenges
In this world
It is then
That we MUST PERSEVERE
And WALK in the Lord's WAYS
Then-that we must walk-
The walk-that the LORD WALKED
For then we will
TRULY BEAR FRUIT
And BRING GOODNESS AND LOVE
Into the world
In Jesus name,
Robert P. Wallman
