[For Winsome Thomas] Bold
banners bear the word LOVE on outside walls of the Old Customs House. They idle
in the January breeze. Then a warning: SHOWING FOR A LIMITED TIME. Think of the
thousands who would have been consoled had LOVE greeted them after the voyage.
LOVE is an exhibition. But to love God and our neighbour as ourselves are
commands, a reminder that we need to be reminded. Fairly often. We may make an
exhibition of our love, but there’s a dizzy limit. We’ve limited time and
resources. Next time we leave church may be in a box.
