we have been told

we've seen his face
and heard his voice, alive in our hearts
'live in my love
with all your heart'
as the father has loved me,
so i have loved you.

"But I say unto you, Swear not at all; neither by heaven; for it is God's throne:
Nor by the earth; for it is his footstool: neither by Jerusalem; for it is the city of the great King.
Neither shalt thou swear by thy head, because thou canst not make one hair white or black.
But let your communication be, Yea, yea; Nay, nay: for whatsoever is more than these cometh of evil." (Matthew 5:33-37)

this post has been full of scripture... haha
