New wineskins, pliable clay – v2

We are broken vessels,
shards of clay held together,
holding living waters, flames
of the Spirit, everlasting light,
scattered on the earth, picked up,
gathered into the hands of God...
 
Our broken pieces are released,
lovingly placed by our Potter, 
gently put back onto His wheel,
our clay becoming wineskins,
new flesh, new creations,
holding the living waters of life...
 
We are fired in adversity,
made strong through struggle,
we are made whole in love,
we are emptied to be filled,
to be poured out, a blessing,
a free-will offering for the world...

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...

stretching old skin – v2

new wine, the Spirit
alive within us, rising,
stretching our old skin
our bodies, changing flesh…
 
new wine, the Spirit
growing, moving,
joy filling our bodies,
to be offered, to be shared…
 
new wine, the Spirit,
the gospel message alive,
to be poured out as a blessing,
a new hope for the world…

new wineskins – v2

new wineskins
of life, of the Spirit
filled with love
moving, growing…
 
life came to us
in the gospel of Jesus
we are filled with the Spirit
the promise of God…
 
our bodies changing,
stretching, growing,
old flesh being cast off,
new skin alive…
 
new wineskins
our bodies, our spirits,
filed with life, of the Spirit
filled with love…

New wineskins - 2

New skin rising, growing,
filling the cut, the gap,
more pliable than the other,
a strain where they meet…
 
Scripture with new meaning,
a revelation, an epiphany,
understanding more clearly,
the words come to life…
 
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…

------------------- 
New wineskins - v2

new wineskins
of life, of the Spirit
filled with love
moving, growing…
 
life came to us
in the gospel of Jesus
we are filled with the Spirit
the promise of God…
 
our bodies changing,
stretching, growing,
old flesh being cast off,
new skin alive…
 
new wineskins
our bodies, our spirits,
filed with life, of the Spirit
filled with love…

A glass full


A glass full, nowhere near empty,
of the wine, the water,
the sailboat, the shoreline,
the whole sumptuous tableau.
 
Times by the water,
azure skies above me,
loves beside me, cherished,
as I strive to drink it all in.
 
Time stands still, perfect,
at least for this moment,
presence, present, magic,
wanting to be nowhere else.
 
Memory sweet, melting,
bleeding within me,
moments, rich treasure,
to drink again and again...

Christ in my mouth – v2


In the bread and the cup
the juice of communion
Christ in my mouth
at least in the meaning
of the sacrifice of Christ

The sacrifice real
having meaning for us
only if we believe
remembering what Christ did
bringing me to my knees.
