Love in 50 Words

What is hospitality, but love for a stranger?

For our fellow people, that we help and shelter them?

We do not need to know someone to love them

To want them safe and fed

Hospitality is compassion, offered unthinkingly to friends

Extend a hand, not judgment, out to a stranger

    Amen, sister. That'll preach. (Whether congregations want to hear it or not is tragically another matter.)
