the words of this
scripture
to love our enemies
to offer them grace
to turn the other cheek
when the law said
an eye for an eye
all of the scripture come
to life
when they spit in his
face
when they whipped him
when they whipped Christ
Love, God, Immanuel
God Here With Us
suffering, dying,
choosing the cross
the words of scripture
lived out fully
an example for us
to walk more gently
humbly in this walk
