HE IS RISEN !

HE IS RISEN !

Shall we deny him our feet to climb those stairs; shall we keep back those hands that he would use; and shall we seal the lips by which he would speak the tender message to the dying soul?

Nay, rather, shall we not say:

"Take my feet, and let them be
Swift and beautiful for thee.
Take my lips and let them be
Filled with messages from thee.

"Take my hands, and let them move
At the impulse of thy love.
Take my voice, and let me sing
Always, only, for my King."

And by every movement of our bodies say to men as we pass on our pilgrim way: "I no longer live, but Christ liveth in me." So live that our lives shall be a demonstration that "Christ in us, the hope of glory," is the Indwelling Presence that guides us in that way.

GLORY POEM # 21


 



A “SUPREME” JUSTICE



A “New” life begins following a Sacred night,
Where GOD'S Holy Spirit allowed all to be right,
But now comes another day, beginning our New life
 many more lessons to yet be learned, as MY LORD'S symbolic wife Ish.5:;5-8

Yes, discipline to wipe clean any “Old” blemishes “Still Showing”,
Which are left over from a sinful course, “All Now Knowing”,
That along with this “New Covenant” comes a “Supreme” justice,
Giving my “New Hope” a reality forever branding us,
Leading “The Way”, as OUR LORD always has done,
Not knowing the future, but still in the race I do run.

I pray, FATHER, you shorten our time as to be tested,
For I now realize, more than ever, how weak is my flesh, even though I’ve rested,
But I’m filled with rejoicing from within my spirit,
For LORD, I feel you here within me, but not due to my merit,
But in Christ I am joyous, that he has made clean,
all sinfulness we as humans contend with & to all mankind is seen.

But happily I accept your Heavy Judgement of Loving Discipline,
That once I’ve been reckoned with, hopefully this race I’ll yet win! (Rom.6:11 & Rom.6:1-23)

Praise be to Jehovah, the Most High “Supreme” Judge throughout all the earth.(PS. 83:18)
AND TO HIS PRECIOUS SON, CHRIST JESUS, OUR LORD & SAVIOR !
