Jesus,
Please touch my forehead with your lips.
Your kiss will be a gate that through it,
your peace and wisdom pour into my soul.
My soul will melt
and become a little stream,
flowing tenderly anywhere,
following your will.
Please kiss me deeply.
Amen.

Jesus,
We should join the economy someday, do you think so?
Every time I go to a bank,
the bank seems weak.
It means our economy is weak, too, right?
We should study economics more.
Would you like to plan for me?
I’ll follow you.
Love you, Jesus.
Amen.

Yes, love me.
As long as you love me,
your love will lead me home.

Jesus,
Loving is not only giving but also taking.
Taking is ’cause of the love of the giver,
not ’cause of the need of the taker.
Receiving the love is also a form of loving.*
