Crashing upon our stone

Can we see ourselves there
standing before the Christ
failing to believe who he was
denying the power of God
Like waves on the shore
the arguments he spoke
being a channel, a portal
a conduit of God’s love
Ever clearer, urgent
though his time had not come
claiming the power, authority
finally that he was God’s son
Crashing on our stone
confronting our unbelief
Christ final spoke plainly
finally claiming the Father
that he is our God
