To The Fearless Ones

To The Fearless Ones (You know who you are)…

Thank you for showing me the world can be conquered without weapons,
That love really is stronger than fear,
That children speak a universal language.

To the fearless ones…

Thank you for teaching me the world belongs to those who will not possess it,
That true riches have nothing to do with money or land,
That unfathomable power can be glimpsed in hidden people.

To the fearless ones…

Thank you for taking me where most people would not dare go,
For letting me smell life,
For stripping me of the insulation of comfort.

To the fearless ones…

Thank you for allowing me to plow new ground,
To walk in a sea of people,
To laugh without pretense,
To live,
To live,
To really live.

To the fearless ones…

Thank you for introducing me to the One who walks the dusty streets,
Who weeps over the untouchables dying,
Who ruthlessly seeks the solitary soul.

To the fearless ones…

I never knew fear binds with such strong cords,
Until freed through service.
Such freedom is true living.

Hell fears nothing more than the Creator,
Fearlessly glowing in creation.
