Christ quoted scripture – v2

Christ didn’t just paraphrase,
speaking about commandments,
He was proving a point,
Christ quoted scripture,
word for word, precisely,
ancient words in the Law,
speaking with authority,
with power in this moment…
 
Their questions were turned around,
this was a challenge, an indictment,
against their failure, their sin,
experts on the Law, the Torah,
the Tanakh, leaders standing before Him,
challenging Him to answer,
not knowing what they had done,
Challenging God to His face...

Hear, oh #Israel, and be careful to obey

Listen to the words of Moses,
To the commandments of your God,
Hear, Israel, and be careful to obey,
All that He has told you,
All that God has commanded,
To receive your inheritance,
To abide in this Promised Land…
 
Listen, oh, Israel, to these ancient words,
To the promise of a land of milk and honey,
For an earthly kingdom, a place,
That you did not create, but a land
Promised to your ancestors,
If you listen, if you are careful to obey,
All that God has commanded…

The #Lord is my #Shepherd #Psalm23

I proclaim this blessing,
The provision of the One true God,
I have nothing to fear,
For the Lord is my Shepherd,
I have all that I need…
 
The Lord gifts me paradise,
The earth and all its wonders,
Life by the still waters,
Walking right beside me,
Peace within my storms…
 
Even though there is darkness,
The devil and his minions stalking,
Though death waits for us in this life,
I am secure under Your protection,
Within the safety of Your wings…
 
You prepare a wedding feast,
A heavenly banquet, life,
In all its abundance for me,
Mocking my attackers, Satan,
All who would do me harm…
 
Oh, how You bless me, how You wash me,
Clean with Christ’s blood, with oil,
Soothing my troubled spirit, mercy,
Grace more than I deserve,
Your unmerited favor, oh Lord…
 
Your Mercy, Your Goodness,
Walk with me, stalk me,
Strive after me in this life,
Wooing me back to You, oh Lord,
Back to my home, this prodigal,
For You are my Creator, my Savior, my God…

We are called to Love

We are called to Love,
To Love God, our neighbor,
To abide in Love, in Grace,
In God’s unmerited Favor…
 
We are called to Love,
To Love without ceasing,
To Pray for one another,
To be a Blessing…
 
We are called to Love,
To be Light in the darkness,
To offer Forgiveness,
Life, true Redemption…
 
We are called to Love,
To pour out God’s Abundance,
To walk Humbly, to Love Mercy,
To Serve, to do Justice…

Reflecting God’s Love

Reflecting God’s Love,
Grace without ceasing,
Offering forgiveness,
A redeeming word…
 
Reflecting God’s Love,
A choice in darkness,
Offering reconciliation,
A redeeming word…
 
Reflecting God’s Love,
Unmerited favor,
Offering abundance,
A redeeming word…

Blanket them in Love

Create a bubble, a blanket,
A hedge of protection,
Cover your worries, your mistakes,
Mortal sins waged against you,
With Love overwhelming…
 
Blanket your days, your minutes,
Every moment, your breathing,
In love, with God’s abundance,
Pray over your path, your way,
With Love without ceasing…
 
Blanket everything in love,
A hedge of protection,
A garment of hope, light,
Redeeming our journey,
With Love overwhelming…
