New wineskins 2 - v2

New skin rising, growing,
filling the cut, the gap,
more pliable than the older,
a strain where they meet…
 
Scripture with new meaning, to me
a revelation, an epiphany, awareness,
understanding more clearly,
the words come alive…
 
New wineskins growing,
a metamorphosis, emergent,
holding new truths, wisdom,
where the old and new meet…
 
Casting off the old, the broken,
from a chrysalis emerging,
new wineskins, new bodies,
filled with God’s love…
 
Alive in the process,
growing in this season,
stretching myself, striving,
to be a vessel for God...
