With an overwhelming sense of dread,
I faced the interview ahead.
When I told a friend my plight,
her calm reply brought gentle light.
"There's only Love to meet," she said,
"and love to meet it with."
The dread was gone; the words remain
an everlasting sweet refrain
of comfort in each God-filled place
where I meet others face to face.
