by that same measure - v2 #poetry #God #Christ #Spirit #John7 #John8 #judgment #forgiveness #mercy #grace #adultry #law

Ancient words of judgment
the Law of Moses...
Stones falling around her...
None standing righteous
all burdened with sin...
 
By the same measure
His words, written in the dust...
God is fully aware...
Their sins present, living,
filling their minds...
 
Focused on their own sin...
They left her with Jesus...
a sinner uncondemned
called to be righteous,
to turn from her past...
 
So too we stand condemned
as children of Adam
and by the sins we carry
But we do not have to fear
the judgment of others...
Jesus' hand sweeps the dust...
