Stop to absorb this, let this truth bleed within you
through your defenses, your
doubts, your comfort
gives your hearts to this
truth -
Christ prayed for you, for
me,
Christ prayed for the
disciples to come
on the night of His betrayal
the night that He was
captured
led to fulfill His fate
Christ did not forget us
He included us in His
prayers
the anguished prayers of the
martyr
taking on our sin, but
faithful
fulfilling His own destiny
His sacrifice on the cross

we are the workers, the wheat
July 31, 2015
sitting in the fields
the interior tin wall of
Stetson Memorial United Methodist Church
are shafts of wheat;
the crown molding top of the walls
are the heads of the wheat.
&
On the walls of the sanctuary, you will see names of
saints who have gone before us in the stained glass but you will also see
vertical stalks all around us. The tinsmiths put these there to remind us we
are to the wheat ripe for harvest, ready to be gathered in by God. Look toward
the ceilings, the heads of the wheat are ready. There are also sections of the
wall and ceiling where we see the shape of vines, as we are connected in the
vine. There are places on the ceiling that have the number 7 for perfection,
the number 12 for the tribe of Israel and the number 40 for the forty days, the
forty years, etc. There is the shape of shepherd staffs on either side of the
Good Shepherd stained glass. There is an arch like the shape of the dome
leading us into the chancel.
