34 How We Become Like God Scott Cairns To the extent that we love mercy and we keep
unfailing watch, we are like our Father in Heaven,
who ceaselessly performs these things in us.
To the extent that we suffer poverty, humiliation,
rejection and pain, we are like the Son of God,
who endured and tolerated all such suffering.
To the extent that we flow outward with the full
abundance of our hearts, and give our
complete substance to the poor, and spend
our lives in service to the sick, we are like
the Holy Spirit who is made manifest
as the abundant outpouring of the
Father and the Son.
