a page from His history #Poetry #God #Christ #Spirit #Matthew21 #Messiah #scripture #King #PalmSunday #Hosanna #Crucify #Solomon #David #genealogy

Claiming a page from His history,
His family’s genealogy,
fulfilling ancient prophecy
claiming His sovereignty...
 
The triumphal entrance
of our Lord, to reign, in victory,
riding on a humble donkey,
our humble Servant King...
 
Son of Solomon, Son of David,
Son of Man, Son of God,
entering Jerusalem as a King
to shouts of “Hosanna!”...
 
A week like no other
fulfilling divine purpose
come to save us, to heal,
come to be our sacrifice...
 
Riding on a humble donkey
our King of life, of glory,
come to shouts of “Hosanna!”...
before the cries, “Crucify!”...

lift the #veil – v2 #Poetry #God #Christ #Spirit #Matthew20 #blindness #sight #healing #mercy #Emmaus #Messiah #scripture #eyes #truth #flesh #world

Lift the veil
raise the curtain
the scales from my eyes...
Redeem me, Lord...
Heal my vision...
Give me sight...
 
Show me the truth
show me wisdom
in ancient scripture...
Reveal Yourself
in the Word
in my heart...
 
Heal me, Lord,
remove my blindness
Renew my faith...
Give me vision
enable me to see
Your abounding grace...
 
Remove the scales,
my blindness from me...
Redeem my sight
the truth within me
Lead me to You,
to Your grace...

the #eyes of #Hosea #Poetry #God #Christ #Spirit #Matthew20 #blindness #sight #healing #mercy #Emmaus #Messiah #scripture #eyes #truth #flesh #world

a knowing sorrow in that moment
seeing so clearly his pain
the grief of expectation
heartbreak of relief
after years of bitter anguish
a healing of the breach...
 
a truth in revelation,
knowing the pain of those years
written in the eyes of Hosea
so stark, so plain the epiphany
the sorrow of that moment,
remembered to this day...

Christ’s words to them
revealing the reality of Jesus
alive after resurrection
in the opening of Your Word -
Your holy scripture -
In the breaking of the bread,
in Christ’s words of prayer...
 
Eyes of Emmaus
of the disciples changing
knitting what Christ had said
An epiphany at their dinner table -
Their hearts ablaze in love
in the gift of revelation
on the road home...
