THE FUNDAMENTALS OF GOD!
One of the first things that
I LEARNED about God=
Is that GOD IS LOVE!
And that the first two commandments
Of God=is to
Love God=and to
LOVE ALL OTHERS!
The FUNDAMENTALS of God!=
God is love
“........for God is LOVE” 1 John 4:8
God is love=and in
That love=is the FIRST GIFT
Form God=
And it contains all others
God loves you=God loves me=
It is up to us
To ACCEPT THAT LOVE=
And to return that love to God
God's love for us
IS PERSONAL=it is a GIFT
To us and it is
The first gift=he wishes for us=
To ACCEPT from him
The FUNDAMENTALS=the gifts
Of God to us

Is death=
And the GIFT OF GOD

YOUR GIFT=
Which was given you

Laid their hands on you” 1 Timothy 4:14
This Christmas season=and
The NEW YEAR=let us take time
To Reflect
Reflect on the ABUNDANCE
Of all of God's gifts
Including the CENTRAL THEME
Of God's LOVE=for both you and me
THE FUNDAMENTALS of God's LOVE
The fundamentals of God's love
In that God loves us=

Born in-
The city of Bethlehem
Christ=born to love us
Born to SAVE US
And through Christ
We have the SPIRIT=
We have the Church=
We have the BIBLE=and
Sacraments=we have it ALL
Because of the GIFT
Of God's love
The gift of love=is that
He LOVES US=Despite it all
Despite all of our sins and imperfections

Is from above=Coming down from the Father
Of the heavenly lights=who does not change
Like shifting shadows” James 1:17
“Each of you=should use WHATEVER GIFT
You have received=to serve others
As fruitful stewards=of God's grace
In its various forms” 1 Peter 4:10

Are given to us=IN GOD'S LOVE
The FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH=is that
