Reconciled Community

Community

We live a life in common,
but not a common life.
Yoked with the pureness of Christ,
we have common thanks to offer to God.
We offer our petitions and our praise
with Joy and confidence.
Joy in the Word!
Joy to the World!
We are together in everything.
Common prayers, common ministry,
Common encouragement,
we are in an abundant community.

About Tom Bolton

I'm a Husband and Dad, a former Enterprise Systems Manager at the City of Milwaukee, and a Disciple and Lay Servant at First United Methodist of West Allis. As I study the Bible, sometimes I feel moved to work through my understanding by writing poetry. I also am continuing to learn in my dialysis experience and pursuit of a kidney transplant. Sometimes I just feel like writing about something that grabs my attention too.
