devotion to try
(with the help of church to hope)

devotion is
thought
feeling
a decision

we follow God
we pray
and claim to God
in worship

we also learn of God
and faith
and love
agape
together so that
when apart
we might do well
we might do
better

and we take this with us
all of it
devotion overall
to inform and encourage
our response
and our initiative in
living
the six days
and how many hours
and with
a much longer view even of
years and
longer after years
