Imitation

After Ephesians 5:1-2

Imitation, someone said,

is the highest form

of something, someone (else)

said, or perhaps it was

the same person or

the same thought, but

they got it wrong, because

it is what we are to be,

imitators, called to imitation

in three parts:

   to be loved as children

   to live love in our lives

   to sacrifice as before

loved first

then love

then sacrifice

that is what is mean

by imitation: imitation

is the form of love

the form of sacrifice

an offering
